National Park College (NPC) students who have completed an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) in Business Management (Accounting) degree may transfer into the Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) degree program at the University of Arkansas at Ft.

The BAS degree is not specific to any NPC program area or concentration.
This degree requires a total of 120 semester credit hours, including at least 45 upper-level credit hours completed at UAFS. NPC students may transfer 75 hours of lower-level courses to UAFS. Prerequisite courses and/or developmental courses may also need to be taken in addition to the degree course requirements shown.
