| Children Under 13 |
We realize that a small amount of students applying to the Institute are under the age of 13. For purposes of verification we are mandating that these students mail in their applications with parental signatures. We will not collect information from these children online. |

| Application |
The application area records personal information which is used to determine student acceptance, as well as administrative functions after admission. Information collected from this area is maintained by the University of Iowa. The application area will not accept information from a student that identifies themselves as under the age of thirteen. This area is secured through encryption technology to ensure your privacy. |

| My Account |
The "My Account" area is used to record any information that was not entered during the regular application process. This area is also used for any online credit card transactions you would like to process. This area is also secured through encryption technology to ensure your privacy. |

| What is Done With My Information? |
We keep your information in confidence. Any health information requested is only used in case of emergency, for the sole purpose of providing medical attention. Contact information is kept in the University of Iowa's Prospective Student Database. No information about a student is disclosed to any third parties. University of Iowa personnel are only able to access information from the Student Database when they can demonstrate an "Educational Right to Know." With the exception of health information, your personal information is not disclosed to entities outside of the University of Iowa. |
