R.O.C.K. Camp is a great opportunity for new students that aids in the transition from high school to college by introducing your student to new people, teaching them about the University of Arkansas, and preparing them for life in Fayetteville. Throughout each session, your student will be placed in small groups led by upper-class student mentors and have the opportunity to participate in many fun and engaging activities that will introduce them to campus culture, identify their strengths, help them set goals for the upcoming year, and get to know other new Razorbacks. The goal is to get your student comfortable and connected to the University community, giving them a jump-start on their college career. This jump-start provides the foundation needed for students to reach their ultimate goal of graduating from the University of Arkansas.
