a two-year and a four-year college. If attending a traditional 4 year college appears too expensive

Arkansas Community Colleges (2-Yr Colleges)Arkansas Junior Colleges, Technical Schools, and InstitutesThe State of Arkansas administers its own system of higher education which operate at least two tiers of public colleges. One being the community colleges in Arkansas, sometimes called Arkansas junior colleges, or Arkansas technical institutes, and so-called "four-year" Arkansas colleges which award bachelor's and master's degrees. The "two-year" community educational institutions provide post-secondary education and lower-level tertiary education, granting certificates, diplomas, and associate's degrees in Arkansas. The name, "community colleges" derives from the fact that "two-year" colleges primarily accept, and attract, students from the Arkansas local community In the 1920s, Arkansas developed junior colleges within public K-12 systems. Nevertheless, in the 1950s a court invalidated spending public school funds on collegiate instruction, and the two-year colleges were forced to become private or close. New community colleges were established in the mid-'60s, and a constitutional amendment in 1964 provided state support for the new colleges. Over the next 30 years, additional colleges were organized resulting in nine community colleges and three two-year university branch campuses. In 1991, legislation turned 14 former vocational-technical schools into institutions of higher education. Eventually mergers with existing institutions resulted in 10 degree-granting technical colleges. Arkansas College Degrees, Certificates, & Diplomas
