UNDERGRADUATE LEARNING
Henderson State’s three colleges help undergraduates prepare for success in their careers and communities.

The School of Business at Henderson offers Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business-accredited degree programs in business and accounting.
The Teachers College regularly re- ceives national recognition for the quality
of the college’s mentor-teacher program for new teachers.
Other undergraduate programs include dietetics, recreation, fashion merchandis- ing, sports management, and family and consumer sciences.
SCHOLARSHIPS
Henderson State offers a wide variety of scholarships for incoming and transfer students. The application for undergrad- uate admission serves as the scholarship application.

COMMUNITY FEEL
Chancellor Peggy Doss has emphasized the community feel of UAM since she became chancellor in January 2020, and as a graduate herself, she knows the benefit of a tight-knit university. Each of the three UAM campuses — Monticello, Crossett and McGehee — are tied in closely with southeast Arkansas. The entire corner of the state is a largely rural, friendly and safe community of UAM students, alumni, fans and friends. Parents love that the student-to-faculty ratio is a competitive 15:1, with no graduate-assistant instructors. The close attention and numerous student resources ensure that UAM students never feel like a number.
OFFERINGS
UAM offers an array of higher education opportunities — from certificates of profi- ciency and technical certificates to associ- ate, baccalaureate and master’s degrees — on three campuses. The main campus in Monticello features a traditional residential college experience, but programs at each location have been recognized for quality and affordability. With more than 70 distinct programs of study, including the state’s only
