Petition to the Admissions and Appellate Board

If you are a domestic undergraduate University of Arkansas applicant and wish to appeal your admissions decision, please complete the appeal form. You will need to use the Student Center login you created when you applied.

You will be required to submit an appeal essay and a letter of recommendation from a teacher or counselor. The essay prompt is: "Please tell us about yourself, why this appeal is important to you, and what steps you will take to succeed and contribute to the University of Arkansas campus."

Appeals for Spring 2024 will begin on September 1, 2023. We will begin considering appeals for Summer/Fall 2024 on February 1, 2024.
