Waldorf College

Waldorf College seeks to be a lively community of learning and faith. The College's mission is to educate the whole person in the spirit of Jesus Christ, enabling the individual to experience fulfillment through a life of service.

Waldorf College is a bachelor's college with an enrollment of approximately 650 students, which offers degrees that combine a strong liberal arts base with applied learning. Co-curricular programs ranging from the second oldest acapella choir in the nation to the outstanding theater program to highly competitive athletic teams provide students with a wide range of opportunities for meaningful participation and personal development.

Waldorf is committed to bringing the world to our students through international student recruitment and study-abroad programs. Every student is challenged to excel in Waldorf's community of faith and learning where students are treated with dignity and respect. The College has an attractive campus with fourteen major buildings and excellent technology resources. All students receive a laptop computer for their use while enrolled, and the College is committed to the integration of technology to enrich instruction and enhance the student's educational experience.

Waldorf College is affiliated with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and aims to model in all its programs and activities the Lutheran understanding of life lived in response to God's grace--a divine calling in service to God and the human community. Waldorf welcomes students of all faiths and Christian denominations.

Waldorf College is located in Forest City, Iowa. Forest City is home to Winnebago Industries, a major recreational vehicle manufacturer. Although a small town, Forest City has many amenities for the enjoyment of the residents. In fact, the city is the smallest in the U.S. to have a YMCA. The Forest City Family YMCA is connected to Waldorf's John K. and Luise Hanson Fieldhouse which houses our athletic department, gymnasium, wellness department, and adjacent to the baseball, softball, soccer and football fields.
