About Augustana

Augustana is home to 2,500 students from many backgrounds. Every one of us is different, but together we like to do a lot of the same things:

50% of students have double majors

About 40% study abroad

Nearly a third are in varsity, intramural or club sports 

25% are involved in the performing arts 

More than 75% complete at least one internship

Visit Augustana, meet students and professors, and see us in action. Explore our home in the Quad Cities, a dynamic metro area with the Mississippi River running through it.

The ‘sticker price’ is not the final price of college

Augustana is more affordable than families might think. Once they receive their financial aid packages, students and families can be surprised at the cost difference between a private, independent college and a large, regional public university.

It’s a difference that can be missed during a family’s initial review of college costs. And it can make all the difference to a student's college choice.
