The Arkansas School for Mathematics, Sciences, and the Arts, the early-college campus of the University of Arkansas System, is a public residential high school serving academically and artistically motivated students of all backgrounds from throughout the state. ASMSAʼs community of learning exemplifies excellence across disciplines while serving as a statewide center of academic opportunity that ignites the full potential of Arkansasʼ students and educators.

ASMSA is one of only seventeen public, residential high schools in the country specializing in the education of talented and motivated students who have an interest and aptitude for mathematics and science as well as a passion for creativity, humanities, and the arts. ASMSA is a specific investment by the Arkansas General Assembly in the stateʼs most talented and promising young minds. Each year, 10th-, 11th-, and 12th-grade students from across Arkansas come to ASMSA to live and learn within a community of 250 intellectual peers. The experience combines college-level coursework, dynamic faculty, advanced research opportunities, diverse experiences within the arts, study abroad trips, and comprehensive residential support programming to create an educational community unlike any other in Arkansas.

Beyond the residential experience, ASMSA serves nearly 6,000 students, parents, and educators each year through a variety of distance education, educator development, talent identification, parental empowerment, and out-of-school enrichment programs. Thousands of students as well as educators across the state receive access to important resources and professional development via the STEM Pathways program. The ASMSA Talent Identification Program (ASMSA-TIP) is specifically designed to identify and develop talented Arkansas students in the 6th-9th grade. ASMSA-TIP provides sustained opportunities for high ability learners to explore and develop their talents throughout the academic year.
