<p>I've heard from multiple people that UI is giving In-State tuition to people from Illinois. Is there any truth to this and how would you go about getting that? I would love to go to Iowa but the cost is probably too high if its out of state.</p>

Does Iowa have a tuition reciprocity agreement with my state?
No, Iowa does not have general tuition reciprocity agreements with any state. This includes (but
is not limited to): Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wisconsin.</p>
<p>That's too bad, especially because I heard that University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is raising it in state tuition to 20,000. Now even public state schools are expensive. </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>Total costs at University of Illinois (including room and board) are around $20,000 -- not tuition alone.</p>
