ACT Academy is an annual residential summer program hosted by The College Access Initiative on the University of Arkansas Fayetteville campus. It helps students tackle the ACT and provides more information about college admissions, academics, and campus life. Students will work on developing their ACT test-taking skills and learn about the many exciting opportunities at the University of Arkansas while staying in a residence hall and experiencing campus life. Participation in the entire program is expected.
