The Scholarship That’s Still Missing

Tuition scholarships open the door to Iowa State University—but they don’t keep students there.

Room and board are the costs that many students cannot cover. It’s the dorm room they sleep in, the meals that fuel their days, and the stability that allows them to focus on learning instead of survival.

Every year, talented students earn admission and tuition aid, only to face an impossible question:
Where will I live, and how will I eat?

When room and board aren’t covered, students are forced to work excessive hours, skip meals, or leave school altogether—not because they lack ability, but because they lack support.

Your gift fills this critical gap.

By helping fund room and board, you give students more than housing and meals—you give them the chance to stay enrolled, stay focused, and graduate from Iowa State University.

Tuition gets them in the door.
Your support helps them stay.

Please consider making a gift today to support room and board for students who have already earned their place—and just need help staying there.

Give 'Em a place to lay and food in the belly!
