Students should fill out their personal information on the form, schedule an appointment with their major professor, complete the signatures on the form, then send it to the Program Director.

  • Instructional Presentations for Current and New Students

  • Students Requesting Letters of Recommendation

    A professor should not provide a letter of reference for a student unless they can write a letter that is very positive and specific. Therefore, your goal should be to become the kind of student professors can rave about in recommendations: hardworking, collegial, intellectually inquisitive, interactive, and honest. Consider establishing and maintaining strong interactions during your program with professors, so that they know you well enough to write for and about you. You should not ask for letters from professors with whom you have not had positive interactions. The best letters come from professors who have served on your committees, or collaborated with you in research. Also, consider professors who had you in courses where you were highly interactive during the course.

For Faculty

  • Faculty Access to Current Applicant Files- CEMB faculty may access all CEMB-maintained records for students and applicants through our box shared folders. We recommend installing box drive in your favorite Operating System (iOS, Win, Android). Access is also possible through a browser and login through https://uark.box.com. Applicant Profiles and supplementary information are in the Applicants folder. The full applicant file materials that have been submitted to the graduate school can be accessed in Slate through applygsie.uark.edu/manage. If you don't have access to Slate there is training available through the Graduate School (contact any of the CEMB program administration).
