University of Arkansas Chancellor's Community Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by University of Arkansas
Overview and Selection Process
The Office of Academic Scholarships evaluates freshman scholarship candidates using a comprehensive review. In addition to standardized test results, high school GPA, and the written scholarship application, other factors — for example, demonstrated financial need and parental/household educational history — may be taken into account. Applicants are considered for multiple scholarship opportunities; however, an individual student will receive no more than one scholarship award.
