About
For more than a century, Arkansas State University has been a force for progress in
Northeast Arkansas, the Delta, and beyond. Founded in 1909 and now home to over 18,000
students, A-State blends a strong tradition of student-focused instruction with growing
national research impact.
Educating Leaders. Enriching Lives. A Legacy of Impact
From our roots as an agricultural training school to our place as Arkansas’ second-largest
university, A-State has always looked forward. We’re home to Arkansas' first osteopathic
medical school and will be the state’s first public vet school with the opening of
our College of Veterinary Medicine in 2026. Today, we continue to lead as a hub for
innovation and growth in the Mid-South.
