Students continue to complete programs at a high rate 

The University of Arkansas Community College at Batesville reported an increase in Fall 2022 enrollment. According to the preliminary college enrollment report from the Arkansas Division of Higher Education (ADHE), UACCB enrollment grew 2.5% from the previous year. Community colleges throughout the state saw an average enrollment increase of 1.6%. 

“We are dedicated to serving our students through quality instruction and positive support programs,” said Dr. Shonk, chancellor. “This increase is proof of the continued hard work of our great faculty and staff.” 

For the past two years UACCB has been successful in improving student outcomes.
