If you haven’t already, take time to explore Tippie. Between eight in-demand majors, vast entrepreneurship resources, and life-changing experiences beyond the classroom, Tippie offers more than a typical university experience in one of America’s greatest college towns.
Application process for international students
Start the process early, well in advance of your desired enrollment date. Check out admissions requirements and information on how to apply, including application deadlines, application fee, standardized tests, and more.
“Before I came to Iowa, I talked with the other international students here. They all said it was a great place to study—and that Iowa City was the perfect college town.”
Admissions options for international students
Like any other student, international students can join Tippie as early as their first semester via admission to the BA or BS program in Economics, or via early admission to the BBA program. Many start in the College of Liberals Arts and Sciences to explore all their options, but if you know that Tippie is for you, consider starting in Tippie right away.
Students admitted to Tippie have access to Tippie's resources, scholarships, and exceptional experiences from day one. On-campus programs like Tippie Buddies and Tippie student organizations all support a smooth transition to your life in a new country.
