About Augustana

Augustana is home to 2,500 students from different social, ethnic, religious and cultural backgrounds.

They're all different, but they like to do a lot of the same things:

50% of them have double majors

55% of them study abroad, most on faculty-led trips

35% are in varsity sports 

25% join music ensembles, even non-majors

70% complete at least one internship

Visit Augustana, meet our students and faculty, and see them in action. Look around our home in the Quad Cities, where the Mississippi River runs through it, and nothing runs like a Deere.

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. (Read more)
