Undergraduate Admissions

Why Iowa Theatre
Once you are a Theatre Arts major most of your classes will be small—no more than sixteen students. You will study with experienced faculty members who care deeply about students. If you want extra help on a class project or on a production, or if you want advice and guidance, simply ask.
