Workday Student

Workday Student is Here on the Hill!

The University of Arkansas is transitioning from the current UAConnect student information system to Workday Student. Workday Student is a modern, mobile-friendly, and cloud-based solution that will serve UA System faculty and students long into the future. Workday Student's data-driven approach to student attainment and retention will help the University of Arkansas achieve our goal of advancing student success.

Workday Student is part of the University of Arkansas System Project One implementation to replace and update core administrative systems - including student administration - within the System.

After August 8, 2025, faculty and staff will no longer have update access in UAConnect. However, faculty and some administrative staff will have view-only access through the Summer 2026 term.
