Get a glimpse of your student's life at college during Family Weekend! This annual event gives families the opportunity to experience the hustle and bustle of Iowa's campus during one of the city's most beautiful seasons. Families can expect to celebrate all aspects of campus, whether that is an athletic event, programming organized by a student organization, or a theatrical performance. We will have a full detailed schedule of events published by early August and will communicate with you via email leading up to the event.
Information about Hawkeye Football tickets for Family Weekend will be made available to those registered on July 8th and Football tickets are first come, first served.
The Family Weekend fee covers the cost of Family Weekend administrative services, facility rentals, staff, and additional fees associated with the programming. There are additional events that require tickets, and more information can be found below about those events. Included in the registration fee is a Hawkeye Family swag item, three tickets to the Pancake Breakfast on Saturday morning, and a discount to the Iowa Football Home game vs. Troy on Saturday, September 14th.
Tickets for Family Weekend are non-refundable. We are offering up to 80 fee waivers for families of students with financial need as demonstrated by their financial aid package. If your student is eligible for a Federal Pell Grant or low-income (SAI of 0 or lower), your family may qualify for a fee waiver for Family Weekend. If you are eligible and want to apply, please complete
this separate application.
After confirming your student’s enrollment, we will email you with a unique code. If you are applying for a fee waiver, please stop filling out your application now and return later once you have your code to finalize your registration.
