Student

University of Arkansas at Monticello is a very affordable option for school. It is a nice small town college that I will say is a bit outdated. Many of the buildings on campus either need to be repaired or need to be replaced entirely. Some staff are helpful in answering questions you may have. Overall is a nice small college it just needs some adjustments.
