The 2020 Arkansas Razorbacks women's soccer team represents the University of Arkansas during the 2020 NCAA Division I women's soccer season. This season is the 35th in program history. The Razorbacks play their home games at Razorback Field in Fayetteville and are led by ninth-year head coach Colby Hale.

The Razorbacks are playing a shortened, eight-game conference-only regular season schedule in the fall due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The season began on September 19 with a home game against LSU and ended with the SEC Tournament Championship on November 22. On February 3, 2021, it was announced that Arkansas would play a six-game non-conference spring schedule, beginning on February 21 and ending April 15.
