Iowa Students Say

Briana
Biomedical Engineering

"Iowa offers so many opportunities to students. I've studied abroad, conducted research, participated in an alternative spring break, and experienced a variety of athletic and cultural events."


Chelia
Health and Human Physiology

"My favorite experience at Iowa has been the Iowa Shout event held during homecoming week. It's a creative event displaying the diversity of the university."


David
Management and Human Resources

David is busy with academics, but his planner is filled with activities outside the classroom as well. He gives tours to prospective students as a Business Student Ambassador.


Hannah
English

"Iowa offered something different than the other schools," Hannah said. "The honors program is phenomenal. It's very interesting and engaging."


Janelle
Biomedical Engineering

"The engineering program challenges students to not only go through the steps of getting a degree, but also getting involved outside the classroom," Janelle said. "It's been rewarding for me to grow as a person throughout my time at the university, and not just academically."


Jenn
Dance

“I knew I wanted to dance in college, but I also wanted to get a second degree. Most dance programs don’t let you do both, but Iowa was flexible and encouraged cultivating my other interests.”


Jeralyn
Management and Marketing

"I came to Iowa because of the opportunities, cost and people. It's amazing to have a Big Ten university that is affordable and offers a world-class education. The University of Iowa is one of the best in the nation."


Mackenzie
International Studies

“Iowa City is a great college town. You get the big university feel, but it’s small enough so you don’t feel lost. I enjoyed how closely the university worked with the community.”


Nick
Math

The interaction with students and the genuine interest of the faculty and staff is what sold Nick on coming to Iowa. "Getting involved with research my freshman year has created close relationships with professors on campus. The professors at Iowa care about you, and want you to succeed."


Nicole
Biomedical Engineering

It is difficult to find a university that offers biomedical engineering as an undergraduate program, and that is one of the reason Nicole chose The University of Iowa.
"You get the small engineering school feel on a Big Ten campus. It's really the best of both worlds."
