“I chose to attend UACCM because of the Arkansas Career Pathways Program that was offered, as well as for the small class sizes and great faculty. Everyone at the College is always very helpful and honestly cares about the students. The Career Pathways Program is especially helpful for non-traditional students like myself who have been out of school for quite some time. If this program had not come along I would not have even thought of going to college. I am so grateful for everyone at UACCM who helped me get started on the path towards a college degree.”
