The North Central Region campus is in Vinton, Iowa,

about 30 miles northwest of Cedar Rapids. Vinton is a

river community with a vibrant shopping district and

many family-friendly events and activities. This county

seat community is home to over 20 chainsaw carvings

and nearly a dozen larger than life murals on the side of

area buildings. Our historic homes, courthouse, train

depot, and the former Iowa Braille and Sight Saving

School are all great additions to the charm of our

community. Halfway between Waterloo and Cedar

Rapids, Vinton is a competitive, self-sufficient business

community focused on growth and hometown service.

The heart of Vinton is about four-square miles, so

most destinations are in easy walking or biking

distance. Although you won't spend much time in

Vinton, there are several leisure

activities available. In Vinton, you have

access to an outdoor pool, walking and

running trails, movie theater, and a

skating rink. On campus you have access to an
