Yield rate
52.3%

With an acceptance rate of 100%, University of Arkansas Community College-Morrilton takes nearly everyone who applies. Only 794 students applied, so treat these rates as directional — small pools swing sharply between cycles. 52% of admitted students actually enroll, which is a high yield by national standards. The score bands below cover the middle 50% of the enrolled students who submitted a score — not the whole class, and not a cutoff.

Test score bands (middle 50% of submitters)

These bands describe the enrolled first-years who submitted a score, not the entering class. Where most students apply test-optional the submitters are a self-selected, higher-scoring group.

Academics

Full-time retention
61%
Transfer-out rate
10%
Student:faculty
21:1

Completion is middling: 42% finish inside six years. First-year retention is 61% — the single largest point of attrition on this campus. The two rates sit near each other: few students who return for a second year are missing from the six-year completion figure. Part-time students fare worse, returning at 35% — relevant if you plan to work while enrolled. A 21:1 ratio is unremarkable; expect a mix of lecture halls and seminars.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 1,538 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

At $9,209 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. Income makes less difference than usual: $7,073 at $0–30k, $13,669 at $110k+. 79% of students receive grant aid, averaging $5,584 — common but not automatic. 14% borrow federally — a low rate, though it covers federal loans only.

Entering first-year students

A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.
