Future Students

Welcome! 

Welcome to Iowa Lakes Community College! Whatever your goals may be, we can help you reach them. Whether you’re starting your college career, returning to enhance or change your career, or just learn something new, we are here for you.

Why choose Iowa Lakes?

Our courses are taught by qualified instructors and we maintain a small student-to-teacher ratio. You’ll receive a more personalized education with individual attention instead of being lost in a classroom with over 300 first-year students. In addition to our small classes, we have state-of-the-art facilities and offer classes at five convenient campus locations. For those students seeking classes on a flexible schedule, Iowa Lakes offers a wide variety of online and hybrid classes in both 16-week and 8-week formats. Our staff is very dedicated and caring.

We are affordable! In recent years, college tuition has greatly increased, leaving many college graduates burdened with heavy debts. Our tuition rates are low and there are numerous financial aid programs and scholarships available.
