    The University of Iowa is considered the best buy for a Big 10 school which is really nice! A student gets to attend a big university for a lot less. Campus living is one of the most expensive in the state of Iowa, but most of the dorms are really nice and spacious compared to other colleges in the state.

    The University has everything I wanted in a university. The classes are of excellent quality, the dorms are comfortable and the clean, there are plenty of options in the dining hall, and there is never a lack of entertainment on the weekends. I would highly recommend the University of Iowa to any student looking for a quality university!
