IOWA PRIVATE COLLEGE WEEK
August 4-8, 2008
One week. A lifetime of opportunities!
For five days, 29 of Iowa’s private colleges and universities present a unique opportunity for you to get to know them and their highly regarded programs of study - Iowa Private College Week. We work together so you have the opportunity to visit as many locations as you want. Tours and important information sessions are scheduled twice each day at each campus: 9:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Students and families can conveniently visit two colleges in one day, or several during the week.
Save time. Save money. Visit three or more campuses during Iowa Private College Week, and your application fee to any Iowa Private college or university will automatically be waived.
Find out if the feel is right for you.
Walk the grounds. Meet students and faculty. Hear from financial aid and academic professionals. With 147 unique undergraduate areas of study offered by Iowa private colleges, we can help outline a plan of action right for you. You'll find common themes during your visits to our campuses - a high regard for academics, a supportive community and an emphasis on success through independent thinking. We challenge our students to challenge the world.
A community of friends.
Iowa private colleges and universities offer you an environment where you can build relationships that last a lifetime. You will be part of a community that includes you as an important part of what's happening. You will have a name people recognize, a face people know, a voice that's heard. Attend Iowa Private College Week - the first stop on the road to your success.
We fit big dreams into your budget.
In 2003 - 2004, 91 percent of Iowa private college students received some type of financial aid. In fact, Iowa private colleges provided more than $249 million in nonrepayable financial assistance. This is just some of what you'll learn as financial aid professionals offer you guidance during your campus visit. For students who want the benefits of the education we provide, a way can always be found! You'll see how during Iowa Private College Week.
