New Scholarship Program for Minority Students at the University of Arkansas

The University of Arkansas has established the Razorback Bridge Scholarship program. The 24 students accepted for the scholarships receive $3,500 and are paired with a faculty or student mentor of the same race to help them navigate the assimilation into the campus community.

To avoid any legal problems, Razor Bridge Scholarships are available to students of any race but those selected must represent a group that is underrepresented on the Fayetteville campus.
