Cedar Rapids Campus Exterior
A Part of the Local Community
Kaplan University, Cedar Rapids campus, has its roots in Mason City, Iowa, where the main campus of Hamilton College has operated as a business career college since 1900. In 1980, the college opened a branch campus in Cedar Rapids, to allow more students to be part of the Hamilton educational experience. In 2007, all seven Hamilton College campuses became part of Kaplan University. Each campus maintains close ties within its community and surrounding communities, resulting in graduates employed throughout the Midwest.
