NSHSS partner Waldorf University is a private, faith-based, nonprofit school located in the Midwest. Our intimate and charming campus sits on a prominent corner in Forest City, Iowa, and has a rich history dating back to 1903, when we welcomed our first students to campus.
At Waldorf, we believe that time spent outside the physical or virtual classroom is just as important as time spent in it. That's why we offer a wide range of flexible course offerings, and you can choose to take classes on campus or online.
Although there are many universities in Iowa to choose from, we focus on you as a person no matter which path you choose—not just on your education.
We describe this as supporting the “and”: At Waldorf, you can be a student and an athlete, a student and a parent, a student and a musician, a student and a caretaker or a student and a working professional.
