Clinton School and University of Arkansas Honors College Announce Partnership

The Clinton School of Public Service at the University of Arkansas and the University of Arkansas Honors College have entered into a partnership to provide scholarship packages to Honors College graduates.

Graduates of the UAF Honors College, which is at the forefront of creating a more equitable state and world where all can flourish, will automatically receive priority scholarship packages when admitted into the Clinton School’s Master of Public Service degree program. Admitted students will also be eligible for additional merit-based funding.

The Clinton School will also engage with prospective Honors College students each year, providing those interested the chance to connect with Clinton School students, faculty, staff, and alumni.

The deadline to apply for Fall 2023 enrollment in the Clinton School’s Master of Public Service degree programs for Honors College graduates will be extended to January 15.

“The Clinton School of Public Service is proud to partner with the University of Arkansas Honors College,” said Clinton School Dean Victoria M. DeFrancesco Soto. “There is tremendous overlap in the work being done at the Honors College and at the Clinton School. We look forward to engaging with their talented, impact-driven students who are passionate about creating a more equitable world.”

The first Master of Public Service degree in the nation, the Clinton School’s MPS is an action-oriented program focused on putting people first. By integrating field service as an academic credit, the Clinton School prepares students for the tough work of participatory, on-the-ground change.
