UALR has been deemed as a “military friendly” university by military.com and a Service Members Opportunity College. For us, those are more than just words. Not only do we provide outstanding service to our active duty armed forces members and veterans, we also recognize the training you receive while serving our country.
We want your experience at UALR to be the best. We know that each military member has a unique set of educational goals and we want to help you meet those goals. Let us know how we can help you.
Credit for Your Military Training
In 2008, our faculty voted unanimously to accept military credit as academic credit whenever possible. The military credit is any credit that is earned through evaluations performed by the American Council on Education and any other accredited military school. At a minimum, this military credit will go towards lower-level and/or upper-level elective credit. Whenever possible, military credit will be articulated as an equivalency for academic credit. What does that mean for you? You are able to complete your degree faster.
