So you're ready to go off to college, but your not sure what to expect. At Arkansas University a good time can be found around every corner! Fear not the dreaded process of high school to college transition, at AU the students and faculty are extremely welcoming. I cannot stress, however, the importance of living on campus. You will find that your studying, and partying, will reach its full potential while living in a campus dorm. The friends I meet my freshman year have helped me through exams, labs and every other obstacle a college student encounters. The provided schools are more than enough to satisfy your quest for a degree in any subject.

School of Business:

The classes at AU are, at largest, 36 students. An 18-to-1 ratio is practiced with students to teacher and a TA is always ready to help. The most amazing quality of AU is their Business school. In the past ten years 50 MILLION dollars has been given by Wall-Mart to the Sam M. Walton School of Business. This donation has provided AU with two new, state of the art, and business school buildings. The technology is incredible, lab tops are never unavailable and smart boards are in almost every classroom. Finally, the Sam M. Walton School of Business is ranked as one of the top 25 business schools in the nation!

School of Arts and Science:

The J. William Fulbright School of Arts and Sciences has delivered premier programs in the liberal arts and sciences for decades. Over the past few years, graduates of this school have been rewarded with such honors as the Barry Goldwater Scholarship, The Rhodes and Marshal Scholarship. The college offers 1,700 courses each semester and numerous interdisciplinary programs. By taking advantage of all this school has to offer, you may find yourself studying abroad in Australia, Canada, Europe, Africa and Asia.

School of Engineering:

Arkansas University's Engineering program is among the top ranked in America. With top innovating professors and an immeasurable amount of technology, your success will be a guarantee. As a fully accredited engineering program, students are able to pursue research and work on real-life problems. With a 16-to-1 student to teacher ratio, students are able to explore this field with great success.

These three schools only present a portion of the opportunities that await you at Arkansas University. The campus if beautiful and the work atmosphere is incredible. However, when you get tired of working and feel like going out, there is plenty to do.

Life on Campus: AU is a great place to go if you like having fun. There is so much to do on campus, and near by. Beaver Lake provides students with all types of water sports, along with Ozark Mountains. The Dickson Street Entertainment District is also a great place to go if you enjoy good restaurants, museums, and symphonies. Rock walls and miles of golf course will leave your adventuress side happy. There is never a chance for boredom at AU, you're days will be filled with nothing but new adventures.
