The International Programs Office promotes and supports on- and off-campus cross-cultural programs like Wartburg Culture Week and offers international students a welcoming place to get advice and assistance.

Wartburg is unique in offering the Host Family Program for every international student. Waverly host families invite students to their homes and gather several times a year for group events with their student partners; what a great way to get involved in the community!

International Club is one of the largest organizations on the Wartburg campus and includes both international and American students. International Club participates in Homecoming, Lunar New Year, and other events.

The Pathways Center offers services in academic planning, career preparation, and counseling. International students can also take advantage of the Writing, Reading, Speaking Lab, a free service that provides peer mentors to help students with the transition to college-level academic work.

As a Wartburg student, you’ll take classes from a wide range of disciplines to help you decide your career—to help you find what you’re meant to do with your life. You can come to Wartburg with your major determined, or you can start your adventure by “exploring” a variety of majors.

Choose your path from more than 50 majors:

About 450 students are involved in Wartburg music ensembles. The Wartburg Choir, Castle Singers, and Wind Ensemble tour every year and tour abroad every three years. Recently, the Wartburg Choir performed at the White House and the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., the Castle Singers toured Europe, and the Wind Ensemble plans to tour Japan this May.

Weight rooms, a rock climbing wall, a waterslide, basketball courts, and more—they’re all housed in the Wartburg-Waverly Sports & Wellness Center, which we call The W.

The W is one of the largest NCAA Division III facilities of its kind in the nation. Learn about all the facilities housed in the 200,000-square-foot center at www.The-W.org.

The Wartburg Knights won two NCAA National Championships on the same day—women’s indoor track and wrestling. No other school has ever accomplished that.
