About This School
Divine Word College is a private nonprofit institution located in Epworth, Iowa with approximately 64 undergraduate students enrolled. In-state tuition is $15,600 per year. The graduation rate is 100%.
Worth considering only if you're specifically drawn to its Catholic missionary mission and seminary-style formation — this is an extremely small institution with just 61 undergraduates, meaning your experience will be deeply personal but narrowly focused. The 100% graduation rate is genuinely impressive and suggests strong student support, though it likely reflects the highly selective, vocation-driven student body rather than a broadly transferable model. If you're not aligned with its religious purpose, this is not the right fit.
