There is a cultural diversity at Iowa that is very welcoming and unites the students and faculty alike.

The Feel of the University of Iowa is something I have never experienced before. From visiting people at many other universities, I always come back to Iowa as my home, each time more assured that I chose the best school out there. The campus is integrated to the downtown Iowa City life that provides endless entertainment and all types of activities for student. Each student at Iowa will tell you that they have made a home here, and will find it hard to leave, often picking the graduate program here as well. It’s a place for anyone and everyone.

The Greek life is involved but not necessary. I know a lot of people that were and were not involved in the Greek social squares and everyone was friends with everyone

UI has a very compact campus for the size of its student body. It has that small school feel, while maintaining its BIG 10 feel. It encompasses qualities like that of a smaller school, making it feel more like home. Here at Iowa, I don't feel like just a number, I feel like I really matter.

This school offers a museum studies certificate, which is not very common for undergraduate programs.

It offers a great IT program with career placement during my education. I will be completing my Associates then moving into my Bachelors seemlessly. The Chair of IT is an outstanding mentor to many students and I can't wait to begin a new adventure!

It is such a large school that it offers almost any class you can think of and also allows you to experience a lot of diverse cultures.

Lots of people, but you will recognize faces and see them often.Fraternities aren't huge here but they still throw some good parties. drinking is definitely more common than smoking the herb. classes are challenging but i would expect that everywhere. the definition of tailgate is Iowa football.
