About This School
Strayer University-Arkansas is a private for-profit institution located in Little Rock, Arkansas with approximately 695 undergraduate students enrolled. In-state tuition is $13,920 per year. Typical graduates earn $53,500 within 10 years of enrollment.
This school is best suited for working adults in the Little Rock area who need scheduling flexibility and a career-focused credential, particularly in business or IT fields. The median earnings of $53,500 ten years out are reasonable, but the median debt load of $40,621 is on the higher side for a school of this type — that's a ratio that deserves serious attention before signing anything. As a for-profit institution with a small enrollment of 695 undergraduates, it lacks the research resources, campus life, and alumni networks you'd find at traditional universities, and for-profit schools as a category have a mixed track record on graduation rates and long-term student outcomes. If you're a traditional-aged student with other options — including community colleges or state schools in Arkansas — I'd strongly encourage comparing total costs and outcomes before committing here. If flexibility and speed-to-degree are genuinely your top priorities, go in with eyes open, negotiate financial aid hard, and avoid borrowing more than you expect to earn in your first year of work.

What Each Major Actually Earns
Median earnings four years after graduation, by major, next to the national median for that same major at every college. The school-wide average hides this: at most schools the spread between the best- and worst-paying majors is far wider than the gap between schools.
