This month, the Arkansas Department of Education launched the ACCESS website.

The Arkansas ACCESS Act is Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ higher education overhaul plan that the Arkansas Legislature enacted during this year’s regular session.

The higher education plan builds upon the transformational success of the LEARNS Act and focuses on aligning pre-kindergarten to post-secondary education to ensure students graduate ready for enrollment, enlistment or employment, the state Department of Education said in a news release.

The website, available at https://access.ade.arkansas.gov/, is a one-stop location for all things involving implementation, the department said.

Focusing on the six key aspects of ACCESS (Acceleration, Common Sense, Cost, Eligibility, Scholarships and Standardization), the website provides details about each of the categories and links to additional information.

In addition to providing more information about each of the categories, the website includes a link to the legislation, frequently asked questions and updates regarding ACCESS. The site also houses links to each of the colleges and universities in Arkansas and will include a link to the Direct Admissions Portal once developed.
