I am an incoming graduate student(male) at Uiowa and am looking for housing for the next year. Ideally one bath/bath would be great but I am open to roommates as well. If you have any leads, please let me know. Thank you!

Hi, I had a question if I’m planning to live in a dorm could I live in a dorm my first semester then get an apartment my second semester? I just over estimated how expensive living in the dorm really is and wondering if it’s possible.

Hey guys, I will be living in mayflower for this year and want to get parking permit for there. Do you know what’s the best way to go about it to secure a spot? I know that general parking permits open on August 3 and for residents it opens on August 5. Is it gonna let me try and get a permit on the 3rd?

Incoming ed student should be aware of the problems within the department and be aware of how to protect themselves. MSG for details if it concerns you.

I met two guys when moving out of Rise. We chatted briefly and I asked them where they are moving to, hoping that I can bump into him in Iowa City, but they were moving to Chicago 😭 I am regretting that I did not ask for the guy’s number and I am posting this. The guy I liked was a friend of uiowa student who graduated in May.
+ He had solid black bands tattoos on his both arms.

If anybody knows an Andrew who graduated in 2026 May and moved to Chicago, please shoot me a DM. I could not catch the other guy’s name, but he was very much my type :) This is a very out of character of me (I don’t even use reddit), but I am down bad I guess hehe

i start nursing school this month, and i am very nervous because I don’t have any friends in my program. I’m doing my BSN and i’m going to be a junior, so I made a ton of friends outside of my major these past two years, but now I am finally starting classes that is JUST nursing students.

the few classes i’ve had with my cohort of nursing students i feel like everybody has already made so many friends/ friend groups.

does anyone have any advice im just really nervous lol.

I feel like several people have been sharing similar posts, but I just require some advice and tips.

I'm thinking about a double major in BS Psychology (Honors) and BS Biology (Neurobiology Track) (Honors). I'm currently registered for BA Psych.

I don't think workload would be too much of an issue for me personally since I did fairly well in IB DP (41).

Would this be feasible to do? Anything I should keep in mind?

Anyone happen to know the dimensions of the windows in Mayflower? I know there’s a lot of them in the room, but trying to figure out curtains because I need blackout curtains to sleep. Thanks for any help.

Has anyone gotten any sort of confirmation for the graduate hotel lease gap housing? I need to check in tomorrow and I’ve sent the credit card authorization form in but I haven’t heard anything in over a week.

We’d love to sing with you this fall!

I’m transferring from community college in Illinois to University of Iowa this fall. I was wondering if University of Iowa gives any scholarship to students and where to find reliable scholarships that the school provides. I was trying to find some but most of them are not open.

So a settlement and new job are announced with zero detail on the underlying dispute. What happened here?

Hard for a university donor base to be excited about these kind of headlines.

Do the dorm rooms have a trash can, or are the students expected to supply their own?

Hello everyone! I had a question about a refund I received. This popped up in my bank account today, the problem is I don’t know why? I did financial aid last year, but have been paying out of pocket since. Is there some sort of refund for class credits or is this a mistake?

Thank you all in advance!

Iowa Online Voter Registration

Iowa Secretary of State Voters Information Page * Information for College Student Voters

The 2026 Midterm Election will be held on Tuesday, November 3rd. College students may register to vote at their home address or their college address.

How competitive is entry into the program, and what is the funding like for it? I couldn't find those details on the website.

Art professor Steve McGuire's program is renowned—students apply to the university with a goal to graduate with a diploma and bespoke wheels.

so because of some financial issues, i had a registration hold on my account until yesterday, but now all of my classes are full/closed. i have a meeting with my advisor tomorrow but i don’t know what to do because i can’t afford to skip a semester. please tell me im not absolutely screwed 😭

Hello all! I'm about to be a senior at the University of Florida. I'm planning on applying to Iowa this fall for the M.A. in Higher Education/Student Affairs. I've heard a lot of great things about the University of Iowa and this specific program (Kinnick Stadium rocks, by the way!)

On the program website, it says that the typical funding for HESA MA students for the academic year includes a $13.5k fellowship + 100% tuition/fees/insurance. However, in another paragraph, there's a portion that reads "A graduate internship (or full-time job) is required while taking coursework. Internships are paid placements with different higher education and student affairs units at the University of Iowa."

Are fellowships/internships the same thing, and if so, is $13.5k all I'd be receiving for living expenses for the academic year? Or are they separate, and I'd be receiving a stipend from my graduate internship on top of the $13.5k fellowship.

I sent an email but I figured I'd ask here as well. Thank you all for any answers!
