List of Cooperating Colleges and Universities

IOWA

KEEP YOUR LISTING CURRENT FOR PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS College Officials: Please periodically verify your listing below at natponsi@mail.nysed.gov to assist prospective students who completed National PONSI evaluated learning experiences and are interested in enrolling in your institution.

Follow the links below for the colleges and universities in each state that have reported willingness to consider awarding credit for courses evaluated by the National Program on Noncollegiate Sponsored Instruction. Names and phone numbers of contacts are provided at almost all of the institutions listed. Contact information is updated as college officials report such changes.

NOTE: Inclusion on this list does not mean that an institution automatically awards the credit recommended in the CCR Online Directory; requests for credit are typically evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The way a noncollegiate learning experience fits into an individual's degree program must be taken into consideration. Conversely, it should not be concluded that an institution will never award credit for noncollegiate learning experiences, including those evaluated by National PONSI, because the institution does not appear on this list.

College and University Profiles - In the interest of bringing together colleges and adult learners, National PONSI invites degree granting institutions to post an institutional profile on this website, describing the degree programs and services of special interest to working adults and nontraditional students. National PONSI's member organizations refer to the profiles, together with the list of cooperating colleges and universities, when providing educational advisement to their employees and students about college degree options.

In the list of academic institutions for each state, those colleges and universities that have posted a profile are identified by an asterisk (*) and linked to their profiles. Interested individuals may wish to refer to the complete list of those institutions wishing to reach out to these prospective future students.
