I am excited to share some incredible results from the first year of the University of Central Arkansas Commitment (UCAC) program, a last-dollar scholarship program available to Arkansas residents who are Pell-eligible or have a household income of $100,000 or less. It removes financial barriers for academically qualified students, offering a debt-free pathway for all tuition and academic fees. As reported last week, UCA welcomed 765 freshmen into the program—representing a third of all first-time students this fall. These students are diverse, with 54% being first-generation college attendees. Their academic achievements are strong, too, with an average GPA of 3.6 and an ACT score of 22. And they come from 69 of Arkansas’ 75 counties. One of the best parts? We've helped these students claim financial aid that was already available to them, reducing their average annual unmet need from $4,000 to just $1,294. This intentional support has made a huge difference—68% of UCAC students have $0 in unmet need this fall. This helped keep the program far under budget and is a massive point of pride for UCA as we share our success nationally. We've also seen a 25% annual increase in our freshman class and a 23% annual improvement in forecasted net tuition revenue, climbing to a projected $14.5 million for fall 2024. The UCAC program is making a real impact, and I’m so proud to be part of an institution that's removing financial barriers and helping more students achieve their academic dreams. UCAC’s next application period opens on Oct. 1, 2024. Visit uca.edu/commitment to learn more.
