About The University of Idaho
Established in 1889, the University of Idaho is a publicly supported land-grant institution with 12,000 students from all the states and more than 90 countries. It offers degrees in a vast array of disciplines, and its strong undergraduate and graduate programs are coupled with internationally recognized research activities.

University of Idaho's beautiful residential campus is located in Moscow, Idaho. Its central location provides easy access to scenic mountains and rivers of the Inland Northwest, urban centers such as Seattle, Boise, Portland, and Spokane. It has state-of- the-art facilities, high-speed internet connections, and a newly opened student recreation center that has the highest rock-climbing wall in the Pacific Northwest. University of Idaho is home to the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival as well as numerous other cultural festivals and events.

The University of Idaho strongly believes that students should not only have expertise in their field of study, but also have a global view. It is a strong supporter of all things international and provides a living and learning environment that encourages cross-cultural exchange. This strong support is reflected by the number of nationally competitive scholarships awarded to University of Idaho students and faculty each year. University of Idaho is also the only institution in the Pacific Northwest and one of a few in the nation that provides $50,000 in International Experience Grants (IEG&Mac226;s) each year to undergraduates who wish to study abroad.
