The University of Arkansas at Little Rock’s premier student recruitment event, Discover UALR, soon will offer prospective students and parents a chance to explore the campus and the university’s academic programs.

Check-in begins at 9 a.m. Oct. 30 in the Jack Stephens Center, and the event will end by 2 p.m. This free open house includes information sessions, campus activities hosted by student organizations, and free UALR goodies.

Participating students will visit an academic college of their choice, meet with current UALR students, and experience campus housing and dining.

Additionally, there will be a chance to win a $1,000 scholarship for taking a picture and the opportunity to snap a selfie for a $500 scholarship.

Application fees for UALR will be waived for high school seniors who apply for admission during Discover UALR.

Last year, UALR hosted more than 800 high school juniors, seniors, and parents.
