Big news for residents of Bowie County, Texas. Students there now qualify for the Arkansas Transfer Achievement Scholarship when moving from the University of Arkansas Hope-Texarkana (UAHT) to the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.

A Huge Drop In Tuition Rates

This significant program reduces the tuition rate for eligible UAHT graduates who transfer to UA Fayetteville. Graduates earning an Associate of Arts or Science degree will now pay the lower UAHT in-district tuition rate instead of the full UA Fayetteville non-resident rate, resulting in substantial savings on their path to a bachelor's degree.

The scholarship is renewable for up to 10 regular semesters and applies only to the base tuition rate, excluding fees or additional program costs charged by the Fayetteville campus.
