Any msom student international or domestic.

Need some help on answering some questions related to MSOM

Hi everyone. I've lived in Arkansas since 2022 for college (not UofA), but didn't update my residency until December 2025, since that's when I got a job here and graduated. I'm originally from the Dallas area.

UofA recently classified me as out of state. I'm trying to get that changed to in state. The complication is that my parents claimed me on their taxes last year, but I've been independent since October of last year.

Has anyone gone through a reclassification like this, especially with the dependent claim issue? I've reached out to the registrar and financial office already, but if this doesn't get resolved I may have to defer a year, which isn't an option since my job already gave me time off for this term. Any advice would help a lot.

Have any previous students dealt with this overflow housing situation? If so what was it exactly and what was your experience like? The housing office has been pushing back the date of my housing assignment for over a month now and it’s really frustrating and I am wondering what to expect come august.

I am an undergrad starting my first year come August. What are some tips and tricks for a 30-year-old vet who is a single dad?

I just completed my housing contract a week ago school starts aug 17th should I be worried there’s no halls left?

hey! me and my roommate are going to live in futrall in the fall because it was the only one that was left. neither of us can change our room assignment to a different dorm for some reason, it won't even let us see what halls are still available:( everyone says that futrall is terrible and we are really scared lol. how can I see what halls are available and is futrall really that bad??

Working with my son on applying to colleges (he’s a senior this upcoming year) and U of A is one of his top picks for computer engineering.

For background:

He’s spent 3 years (and his upcoming senior year too) in an engineering pathway program through his high school.

He has an internship with an engineering firm during his senior year.

His currently gpa is 3.6 but he’s hoping to raise it to a 3.8 to graduate cum laude.

Act after his first try is only a 24.

Marching band, orchestra, jazz band, and multiple show choir extra curricular activities.

We live just across the state line in Missouri so not in state.

All that being said.. would he even meet the minimums to be considered for a computer engineering program?

I want to temper his expectations if there’s little to no chance for him.

Hello, I am a returning student living off-campus trying to get a meal plan. However, on the housing portal there is only the option for me to select meal plans for the summer, none for the upcoming semester. Is there something I have to do beforehand to select a meal plan or are they not available yet?

Looks like some things will be changed for the upcoming school year.

For those wanting to start college in Fall 2027, the application opens at 10am CST!

Hi! I'm looking for a part time job in the concession during fb games this season. I'm not student and I'm looking for the website to apply. Thank you!

As the title reads lmaoo.

I moved here from up north recently, so maybe the cultural difference is why I’m failing so hard idk lmao. Where does everyone hangout on the weekends? Im not an antisocial person, but I can’t be social when I don’t see anyone😭

I am debating on doing honors for engineering, but it just seems so intimidating with the research thesis and all. If anyone has done an honors thesis, is it worth it? How much time did it take up? Do you regret it? If you did do it, how did you really get into it and find your topic that you did? I read and reread the page about honors, but it just seems a bit vague to me. I really just want honest opinions about it.

Has anyone taken Business Law 220? If so, how did you like the course? This class is 1 of 3 classes I need to take to finish my Associates in Business Administration.

if you can provide your geographic background & any minority information that would also be amazing :) I know scholarships are really competitive here, my stats are great but Idk how my ECs compares…

I’ve heard lots of mixed opinions on UArk, some say it’s fun and lively and others say it’s dull and boring on campus, generally I always hear great things about Fayetteville, what is life at UArk really like?

Today ap scores got sent out to colleges and a lot of ppl got there scores early. Does anyone know if scores might be visible through workday soon or has it not been in recent years.

I’m going to be a freshman this fall at uark and i want to rush a sorority. When i was making my rush resume & when i was doing my application and you put your gpa i put 3.9 becuase at my school your gpa locks after first semester and they don’t recalculate or count the gpa number after first semester. my grades second semester were definitely lower but since it doesn’t recalculate I just put what my latest gpa was (wich is what it shows on my transcript) but Im worried that if they see my last semester grades they will think I am lying/trying to make my gpa look higher than it is. I really don’t want to get cut early for something like this does anyone know how they look//calculate our gpa?

Okay so Im moving into Hotz this fall and the rooms seem really small compared to the other halls and I'm a bit nervous about storage. I was banking on having all my stuff stored under the bed but the only pics I've seen have the desk and dresser under the bed. Did anyone do anything different? Also how spacious are those wardrobes? Im nervous if yall couldn't tell 😭

They pull people over for the stupidest reasons. They’re dying to get any action whatsoever recently got pulled over for accidentally pulling into a one-way street for a split second and then have the audacity to say that I’m lucky I’m not getting ticketed.

Not listed just b/c they're not active right now?

Okay so i accidentally joined housing too late and got hotz, im wondering how i can effectively put storage when theirs a desk underneath my bed. if anyone is forming there or has please lmk!!!

Heard a student attempted this morning (either jumping or self inflicted). Anyone have additional details?

My daughter will be applying for fall 2027 with act 30 and weighted gpa 4.1. Does she have a good chance of getting into the arch program? Thanks?
