Buena Vista University Graduate & Professional Studies is exclusively for students seeking to complete degrees begun elsewhere. We facilitate the smooth transfer of credits from Iowa Western Community College. This advising guide is effective for students entering BVU in the 2011-12 academic year. As course and degree requirements change, students are encouraged to consult with BVU personnel.

Iowa Western Community College has a full articulation agreement with Buena Vista University. Students who have completed an approved associate's degree at IWCC can seamlessly move on to complete a bachelor's degree through BVU.
