Wartburg College, located in Waverly, Iowa, is a liberal arts school that does an amazing job incorporating faith into the classroom. Some of the greatest strengths the college possesses are faith, service, personal connections, and job placement. The music education and music therapy programs are fantastic, as is the Wartburg choir. Plenty of non-music majors are attracted to Wartburg for the opportunity to participate, to perform, and to be a part of music. The biology, pre-professional programs and athletic programs are also stand out offerings. Students like the small community aspect, which also means a small student-faculty ratio with one-on-one time with professors. Students typically feel that faculty members have large hearts and a genuine interest in how their students are getting along in their classes and how they are doing. Certain departments, including education, do a great job of getting you out in the field right away to make sure that you have the experience needed, and academic advisors provide truly individualized meetings and scheduling options. Wartburg emphasizes community service and what the college can give back to the community is something rare and incredible. Offerings include helping to train service dogs, opening up the wellness center to the community, and raising awareness for multiple causes.
