University of Iowa - MBA

www.sanctatrinitas.com

The University of Iowa currently ranks 29th among 164 public universities in the United States. You can see a complete list of our various rankings at http://www.uiowa.edu/facts/rankings/index.htm

We currently have more than 3,400 international students and scholars from over 100 different countries studying on our campus. Our total enrollment is more than 32,000 professional, graduate and undergraduate students. We are a large university located in a small city with a population of 70,000. This creates a wonderful learning environment with top faculty, state of the art equipment and a friendly atmosphere. Our faculty/student ratio is 16:1. We have fewer than 30 students in 80% of our classes. We provide a wide course selection typical of a larger university, and a safe and beautiful campus. Getting around is easy if you walk, ride a bike or take one of the free university buses that circle the entire campus.

The Graduate and Professional Admissions web page is http://grad.admissions.uiowa.edu/apply


The Office of Admissions processes the application but decisions are made by the individual departments. Once the decision to admit is made Admissions looks at the application to determine that minimum eligibility requirements are met:

Applicants must have a 4-year U.S. undergraduate degree equivalent (or higher) with a GPA of 3.0 on a 4-point scale or the foreign equivalent.

A TOEFL score of iBT 81/PBT 550 (some departments may require a higher score) or an IELTS score of 7.0 with no sub-score less than 6.0.
The TOEFL requirement will be waived if you have (or will have) earned  a bachelor's degree or higher from a university in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada (excluding French Quebec), Africa (English speaking), Australia, or New Zealand prior to your intended session of enrollment.

Check the departmental web page to determine their GRE or GMAT requirement, and if they require additional supporting documentation.

Once we are notified of an admission decision, and the student indicates they want F-1 or J-1 student status, we will look for a financial guarantee. This could include a sponsor’s statement, personal funds, a departmental award or a combination of each.

Students apply online AFTER they go to their department’s Admissions webpage: http://grad.admissions.uiowa.edu/graduate-areas-of-study

Apply online
Submit official transcripts, original language and English translations (both Admissions and your department)
Submit TOEFL or IELTS
Submit GRE or GMAT, if required by your department
Submit paperwork required by your department (see their website), such as a resume, statement of purpose, letters of recommendation to your departments mailing address
Submit a financial guarantee (either at the application stage or after an offer of admission) that shows the ability to pay for the first year of study

Financial Assistance (Assistantships or Fellowships):
We strongly suggest that you contact the department directly concerning assistantships they offer, if this interests you. Teaching and research assistantships are a great source of income for graduate students, and they are available in most University departments. In general, students with fellowships or graduate quarter-time or half-time assistantships are classified as Iowa residents for tuition purposes (during the terms in which their appointments are held and any adjacent summer sessions in which they are enrolled). This means significant savings!
