Compare And Contrast Morningside College

Everyone must decide what to do after high school. I have decided that college is the route I am taking. I have done a lot of research on colleges. I can confidently say I prefer the University of Iowa to Morningside College because Iowa is less expensive, has more students, and more activities to do.
The two schools I am comparing are the University of Iowa and Morningside College. One of the most important things for me in comparing colleges is cost. Morningside’s in-state tuition is $26,680.

With more clubs, people, and better sporting events the University of Iowa is the clear winner when comparing
