It is truly most student-centric university. The programs and the faculty worked towards one goal that was to make sure students actually learn something new in their respective field.
I graduated this spring, and I can say that I will never forget wonderful time spent in Ames.

Beautiful Campus, offers a variety of majors and a multitude of colleges. Very helpful faculty and always friendly people on campus, very welcoming and open environment. Large expansion occurring throughout campus in the engineering and sciences. Definitively recommend visiting in the fall when the leaves are changing or in the spring when all the flowers are in blossom.

Every fall, I am reminded as to why Iowa State University is ranked as one of the most beautiful campus in the country. All the fall foliage makes me want to keep snapping photos like an incoming freshman visiting the campus for the first time. Some of the best locations for looking at fall colors are: 1) around the campanile, 2) central campus (near Pearson Hall), and 3) along Osborn Dr. If you want to avoid getting judged by others for taking pictures, there are plenty of photo opportunities at Reiman Gardens. However, be sure to take those photos quickly as peak fall colors only lasts for about a week.

To all high school seniors looking at colleges, tour Iowa State! Iowa State was pretty low on my college list but I decided to tour it anyway. Coming from Wisconsin, my first thoughts were it was a college in the middle of no where with an easy acceptance rate...sketchy. But the moment I stepped foot on campus for my college visit I knew it was the place for me. It's a division one school but the beautiful campus and friendly staff made it feel small. Iowa State was the only college I applied to and I am more than happy with that decision. The professors and advisors truly care for every student and want you to succeed. For the university being in a such a small town, there is so much to do at ISU. From intramural sports, clubs, going to sporting events, joining greek life, exploring Ames, there is so much to do. Go cyclones.

College of Design is a great place to be with amazing people and a very open minded culture. This being a research university, the opportunities are everywhere you look for it. They host international students very well.

I cannot say how much that I love Iowa State University. The professors have all been incredible and are extremely smart, compassionate people. There are so many opportunities for students to pursue their dreams both academically and any hobbies that they have. The campus is also extremely beautiful and is rated one of the top 10 in the world.

Great staff, in the math department at least. I wanted to do research and was doing fairly well in my classes, so I sent an email to 30 professors and got 10 offers. Be wary of not being able to understand the foreign teachers though.

Beautiful school, amazing people, plenty of opportunities. The only problem is that the acceptance rate is too high and the school/city cannot make the changes needed with adjusting to a bigger school.

I am a contractor with ISU. I have been on numerous college campus's and Iowa State has a very high interest in seeing that the students here advance in their chosen field. I've yet to see any college match the care that ISU gives the families that attend here.

Nice large campus with plenty of scholastic offerings.
Knowledgeable and helpful staff. Most classes are small enough to get to know the instructor and all are small enough for Q&A.

Could use a few more public/commuter parking spaces.

There are lots of opportunities for leadership and research. Iowa State has improved in diversity over the last 2 years but International Student population has decreased due to political climate. The tuition increase made this year pretty tough in terms of paying the bill though.

Without any bias, this University needs some work on its diversity. Be on this it's a large campus that can be very confusing for a newcomer. Sports why's this University is on the up-and-up, however they are always still getting owned by the University of Iowa, which as a University of Iowa student, warms my heart to no end. Hurricanes and Cyclones don't touch down in Iowa, only the Hawkeyes. Go Hawks!

Overwhelmed with the lack of assistance on welcome day. Parents are expected to know how to get from the stadium to the dorm of their child and then back to the stadium via cybus apparently without any of the workers being able to tell them where the correct place is to catch said bus. Spent three hours being sent from place to place. Only redeeming quality was the move in crew they rocked!

I had a wonderful adventure during my undergrad as a Civil Engineering student. I graduated in 2015 and feel that the CCEE department did a great job of preparing students for the work force. Although, I thought many of the general education engineering classes were too large. An added plus was the beautiful campus, along with how easy it is to walk around.

I knew for a while that this was the university that was right for me. Now that I am here, it's even more evident. Diverse and challenging courses, capable professors, many help and rec centers, food options, a beautiful campus, friendly and safe students and so much more.
