Education
The Iowa Tribe has several programs to assist Iowa Tribal members in receiving an
education at all levels. With proper documentation and application, Iowa tribe
members may receive up to $400 per semester, or for married students, up to $530 per
semester. In addition, grants for Adult Vocational Training are available for
Tribal members and other Indians residing within the service area, contingent on the
willingness to accept full time work when the training is completed.
