As part of a nationwide initiative called the Voluntary System of Accountability, The University of Iowa has joined more than 245 public four-year universities agreeing to share detailed reports about student outcomes, enrollment, and engagement.

The University of Iowa's College Portrait
Our hope is that by participating in this initiative, students, families, policy-makers, and members of the general public will have an improved understanding of the University's many successes, and find it easier to make apples-to-apples comparisons to other participating schools.

As an "early adopter," The University was one of the first schools to volunteer to participate in the project.

Characteristics catalogued in each College Portrait include details about each school's:

• Students
• Cost of Attendance
• Student Engagement with the Learning Process
• Core Educational Outcomes
