Since its inception in 1958, Honors at Iowa has made it a mission to help high-ability students discover and realize their potential. We thank you for your generosity in making the resources available to challenge these students in the unique ways they require in order to develop.
The vast majority of gift money we receive, over 90%, goes directly to our students in the form of scholarships and fellowships. In other words, your gift has a direct effect on the development of an individual and thus makes a difference in that person’s life. We invite you to visit Honors at Iowa to learn how your donation can benefit our students and impact the program.
