You asked, and we listened! IT services now offers live chat during our IT Help Desk hours in addition to our traditional in-person, over the phone and email support. Last semester, we surveyed students on their view of technology at the University of Arkansas, and more than 700 students responded. Of those, 18 percent of students told us they preferred chat for technical support. 

Students can visit its.uark.edu/help to use the new chat feature after logging in with their UARK account.

In addition to the new chat feature, we've expanded our tech support hours to include Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
