Setting a Budget
Take advantage of free & low-cost activities
Financial independence can be difficult at first if you don’t set a budget. Budgeting allows you to keep track of your expenses while avoiding overspending. Everyone will have a different budget, but budgeting is the first step to good financial decision-making.
There are many low-cost and free entertainment opportunities available across Iowa City for students. Recreation Services regularly hosts different intramural activities throughout the year, including sand volleyball, basketball, and e-sports. The CAMBUS system is free and Iowa City transit is a low-cost method for students to travel around the Iowa City area.
Getting a Job Becoming a student employee might seem overwhelming, but it provides additional sources of income and additional spending flexibility. Students who work 1-20 hours per week have a higher average GPA than students who do not have a student job, according to the UI Pomerantz Career Center. There are over 7,000 students who are employed with on-campus part-time positions, according to UI Human Resources. On-campus employment opportunities within the Division of Student Life that provide flexible hours. Downtown Iowa City businesses are also an alternative employment opportunity.
Utilize Your Meal Plan Your meal plan provides access to the dining hall locations across campus, and you should aim to use that as much as possible. Meal plans also provide flex meals that are available for use at multiple locations across the University of Iowa campus. Your meal plan can help save you from spending a lot of money at downtown restaurants.
Banking literacy Be prepared to actively track your spending and banking statements with mobile banking apps. Hills Bank in the Old Capitol Mall is also a great local banking option that offers certain benefits for UI students.
Utilizing public transportation Avoid using costly food delivery services. Walking or taking the bus to pick up food with a friend can be fun and will save you money. Familiarize yourself with local public transportation, namely CAMBUS and Iowa City transit, and the routes that they take to figure out how to get where you want to go. The TRANSIT app provides real-time updates and comprehensive information on bus routes as well as integrated ridesharing services like Uber and Lyft.

Hawkeye wrestling makes history Iowa will officially add a women’s wrestling team in 2023-24, becoming the first Power Five school to sponsor the program. Iowa became the first Power Five school to sponsor a women’s wrestling team during the 2021-22 academic year. Hawkeye athletics director Gary Barta unveiled the women’s wrestling program on Sept. 23, 2021. The addition of the program was the result of a Title IX lawsuit settlement, which was brought on by four women’s swimmers in 2020. USA wrestling national assistant coach Clarissa Chun was named the Hawkeyes’ first-ever head coach on Nov. 19. “This is a historic moment for young girls, young women across the country,” Chun said. “This is an amazing opportunity for everyone that wants to come and compete at the University of Iowa.” Chun has already added 10 recruits to her class of 2022. The Hawkeye recruits will be on campus in 2022-23, and Iowa will officially begin competition in 2023-24. The Hawkeye men’s and women’s wrestling
teams will soon practice in Carver Circle, a $26.5 million, state-of-the-art facility next to Carver-Hawkeye Arena. The facility, which is slated to be completed in 2024, will feature a tunnel to Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Iowa Athletics broke ground on the facility in summer 2022. The Hawkeye men’s wrestling team finished third at both the Big Ten and NCAA Championships in the 2021-22 season. After posting a regular season record of 14-1, senior 165-pounder Alex Marinelli won his fourth Big Ten individual title. Junior 197-pounder Jacob Warner took second place at the national championships. Five of Iowa’s 10 regular starters from 2021-22 will return next season. Warner, 125-pounder Drake Ayala, 149-pounder Max Murin, 184-pounder Abe Assad, and heavyweight Tony Cassioppi are all likely to take the mat again in 2022-23. Three-time 125-pound NCAA Champion Spencer Lee will also be back on the Carver-Hawkeye
Arena mat in the fall. Lee wrestled three times in 2021-22 before bowing out of the rest of the season to surgically repair two ACL tears. Marinelli, 141-pounder Jaydin Eierman, 133-pounder Austin DeSanto, 157-pounder Kaleb Young, and 174-pounder Michael Kemerer have all wrestled their last collegiate matches. Iowa added Real Woods — a former Stanford All-American at 141 pounds — via the transfer portal on April 2 to fill the hole left by Eierman. Nelson Brands, now a senior, might also be back in Iowa’s starting lineup in 2022-23. Brands is the son of Hawkeye assistant coach Terry Brands. Nelson Brands was one of the Hawkeyes’ 10 starters in 2020-21 and went 8-6 at 184 pounds in 2020-21. He missed the entire 2021-22 season with an injury. Brands started at Iowa as a 165-pounder. He wrestled six matches at 174 pounds last year before his season was shut down.

Women’s basketball maintaining momentum The Hawkeyes will return all five starters for the second straight season in 2022-23. Iowa women’s basketball had a historic year in 2021-22. The Hawkeyes won the Big Ten regular season and tournament titles for the first time in program history. Iowa earned a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament, hosting the first two rounds of the national tournament at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. The Hawkeyes easily took down Illinois State in the first round, but the Hawkeyes’ season ended in heartbreak as they were upset by 10th-seeded Creighton in the second round on their home court. Iowa ended their season with a 24-8 overall record. In 2022-23, the Lisa Bluder-coached squad is returning all five starters and almost all of their scoring for the second straight season. Center Monika Czinano is returning for a fifth season at Iowa. Seniors McKenna Warnock, Gabbie Marshall, and Kate Martin, and reigning Big Ten Player of the Year Caitlin Clark will also come back to the Hawkeyes. The Hawkeyes are returning 11 total players from the 2021-22 championship squad. Juniors Shateah Wetering and Sharon Goodman didn’t play in the 2021-22 season because of ACL tears, but they are slated to return in 2022-23. Iowa is also adding Central Michigan transfer Molly Davis, as well as freshmen Hannah Stuelke, Jada Gyamfi and Taylor McCabe, which is the 20th-ranked 2022 recruiting class, per espnW.
The new-look men’s basketball team Iowa lost both Keegan Murray and Jordan Bohannon, who combined for 40 percent of the Hawkeyes’ scoring. After Luka Garza left the Hawkeye men’s basketball team following the 2020-21 season, Keegan Murray emerged as Iowa’s new star. Murray broke the Hawkeyes’ single-season scoring record with 822 points in 2021-22, leading Iowa to its third Big Ten Tournament title in program history. The Hawkeyes, however, could not capitalize off their Big Ten Tournament title, falling in the first round of the NCAA Tournament four days later. Iowa ended its season with a 26-10 overall record. Murray earned consensus first-team All-American honors following the 2021-22 season and left Iowa for the NBA. Iowa is losing over 40 percent of its scoring between Murray and departing sixth-year senior Jordan Bohannon, who ran out of eligibility. The Hawkeyes are also losing point guard Joe Toussaint, who transferred to West Virginia for 2022-23. But guard Connor McCaffery, the son of 13th-year head coach Fran McCaffery, is returning for a sixth year with the program. Connor McCaffery averaged 2.5 points and 2.5 rebounds in 34 games in 2021-22. Iowa is returning three starters for the 2022-23 season: junior forward Patrick McCaffery, junior guard Tony Perkins, and fifth-year senior center Filip Rebraca.

Carver-Hawkeye Arena, located on the west side of campus near Kinnick Stadium and Duane Banks Field, opened in 1983. The 15,000-capacity arena has a bowl design with no middle concourse. The Hawkeye men’s and women’s basketball teams, as well as gymnastics and wrestling, share the space during the winter season. Carver-Hawkeye Arena is easily accessible by bus, as the Red, Blue, Finkbine-Pentacrest, and Hawkeye-Pentacrest CAMBUS routes have a stop.

The Iowa women’s gymnastics team continued its run of success during the 2021-22 season. Although Iowa was unable to repeat as conference champs after capturing the Big Ten title in 2021, there were plenty of bright spots in the 2021-22 season. The Hawkeyes defeated rival Iowa State, went toe-to-toe with conference champ Michigan, and reached the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Championships. Iowa finished the season with a team score of 197.075 points at the NCAA Raleigh Regional Final, the second-highest single-meet team score in program history. After the GymHawks bowed out of the team competition, Adeline Kenlin moved on in the national tournament individually on the beam. She tied for second in the country with a 9.950 score, the highest score ever recorded by an Iowa athlete at NCAA Championships. Kenlin became the first Hawkeye to advance to the national finals in any event since Clair Kaji in 2017. The GymHawk program said goodbye to seven seniors after the regional final including Kaji, Lauren Guerin, and Mackenzie Vance. Allie Gilchrist, Alex Greenwald, Bridget Kilian, and Carina Tolan also graduated last spring. Iowa, however, will enter 2022-23 with a young core revolving around returning All-Americans Kenlin and JerQuavia Henderson. Iowa head coach Larissa Libby signed a contract extension through 2026 this season. Libby has spent over two decades in Iowa City.

Kickin’ it Who starts as Iowa’s QB? at Kinnick The Iowa football team went 10-4 last season and has a quarterback competition underway heading into the 2022 season.
The University of Iowa’s football stadium hosts thousands of Hawkeye fans every fall.
The Iowa football team is coming off a 10-4 season that saw the Hawkeyes win the Big Ten West division and make an appearance in the Citrus Bowl. The Hawkeyes started the season 6-0 and received a No. 2 ranking in the Associated Press top-25 poll before dropping back-to-back midseason games against Purdue and Wisconsin. Four straight wins to end the regular season — against Northwestern, Minnesota, Illinois, and Nebraska — propelled Iowa to a share of the Big Ten West title. Minnesota’s upset win over Wisconsin in the final week of the season sent Iowa to the Big Ten Championship Game, its first since 2015. At Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Iowa lost the conference title game, 42-3, to Big Ten East Champion Michigan. The Hawkeyes ended their 2021 season with a 20-17 loss to Kentucky in the Citrus Bowl.
Head coach Kirk Ferentz, the program’s all-time leader in wins, just finished his 23rd season as Iowa’s head coach. Ferentz recently signed a contract extension that will keep him in Iowa City through the 2029 season. The Hawkeyes have 17 starters from 2021 returning for 2022 (eight on offense, seven on defense, and two on special teams). Iowa will be without nine of its starters from last season, most notably consensus All-American center Tyler Linderbaum, All-Big Ten defensive back Dane Belton, and the program’s leading rusher the past three seasons: running back Tyler Goodson. Spencer Petras, Iowa’s starting quarterback the past two seasons, returns for his senior season in 2022. Petras is competing with Alex Padilla and Joey Labas for the starting job.

The statue of Nile Kinnick is seen outside of Kinnick Stadium on May 5 2021 .
Kinnick Stadium, the University of Iowa football program’s home stadium, opened in 1929. Nearly a century later, it continues to house thousands of passionate Hawkeye fans on fall Saturday afternoons. Every game, fans at the 69,250-seat stadium experience some of the traditions that make up a college football-filled afternoon in Iowa City. The Hawkeyes will swarm onto the field with AC/DC’s “Back and Black” and Metallica’s “Enter Sandman” roaring over the speakers. A portion of Nile Kinnick’s Heisman Trophy acceptance speech will play on the video boards right before kickoff. And at the end of the first quarter, everyone in the stadium will wave at the onlooking children’s hospital. Iowa is 304-189-15 (.612) all-time at Kinnick Stadium. Last season, the Hawkeyes went 6-1 in their home stadium last season, winning games against Indiana, Kent State, Colorado State, Penn State, Minnesota, and Illinois, while losing to Purdue. Iowa’s 30-7 win over Kent State last season was the program’s 300th win inside Kinnick Stadium. Iowa’s first win in the venue was a 46-0 victory over Monmouth on Oct. 5, 1929. The state became the seventh Big Ten school to celebrate at least 300 wins in its home stadium. The Hawkeyes are scheduled to play seven home games next season: South Dakota State (Gold Out Game), Iowa State (Cy-Hawk series), Nevada (family weekend), Michigan (ANF Black and Gold Spirit Game), Northwestern (Homecoming), Wisconsin (Military Appreciation Black Out Game), and Nebraska (Heroes Game/Senior Day). Kinnick Stadium is located at the intersection of Hawkins Dr. and Melrose Ave. in Iowa City, near Duane Banks Field and the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics.

Iowa field hockey aiming to reload in 2022 The Hawkeyes came up short of their NCAA and Big Ten tournament aspirations last year. This season, they’ll look to live up to their expectations. The Iowa field hockey team fell short of its lofty expectations in 2021. Last year, the Hawkeyes rose as high as No. 1 in the National Field Hockey Coaches Association Poll. Iowa did not, however, win the Big Ten or NCAA tournaments. The Hawkeyes won their first 16 games of the year. Iowa came up just short of a perfect regular season record, falling to Northwestern, 2-1, in its 17th and final game. In all, the Hawkeyes lost three of the last four games they played in 2021. Iowa fell to Michigan, 3-2, in the first round of the Big Ten Championships. In the second round of the NCAA Championships, Iowa lost to Northwestern, 1-0. The Hawkeyes beat the American University Eagles to advance to the second
round of the national tournament. Two of the three losses Iowa suffered in 2021 came against Northwestern. The Wildcats won the 2021 NCAA Tournament after they were bounced in the first round of the Big Ten Championships. The Hawkeyes will be without now-graduated forwards Maddy Murphy and Ellie Holley in 2022. Murphy and Holley tied for the team lead in points in 2021 with 27 each. Murphy and Holley scored seven and eight goals, respectively in 2021. Iowa’s top goal-scorer, Ciara Smith, will be back this year. She racked up 10 goals last season. Iowa’s first game of the year is scheduled for Aug. 26. The Hawkeyes will take on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Northwestern midfielder Lauren Wadas and Iowa midfielder Sofie Stribos fight for the ball during a field hockey game between Iowa and Northwestern at Grant Field in Iowa City on Nov. 14, 2021. Northwestern defeated Iowa, 1-0.
Soccer seeking another strong season The Hawkeyes advanced to the Big Ten Tournament semifinals during their 2021-22 campaign and returns most of their roster for 2022-23. The Iowa soccer team tied for fourth in the Big Ten standings during the 2021-22 season, and the Hawkeyes are seeking to build off that success in the fall. Led by head coach Dave DiIanni, the Hawkeyes went 12-6-2 overall and 5-4-1 in the conference last fall. Despite advancing to the Big Ten Tournament semifinals, the Hawkeyes fell short of an NCAA Tournament bid after qualifying in the previous two seasons. As DiIanni starts his ninth season at the Iowa Soccer Complex, the Hawkeyes return much of their defense that allowed one goal per game last fall. They retained two reliable goalkeepers — redshirt senior Monica Wilhelm and junior Macy Enneking — who have split starts the past two year. On the backline, the Hawkeyes usually have four defenders. Fifth-year senior Sara Wheaton and senior Sam Cary will provide veteran experience, along with graduate transfer Cassidy Formanek, who comes to Iowa City from the University
of Houston. In the midfield, Hailey Rydberg returns for her fifth season in the Black and Gold, and she led last year’s squad with seven assists. Sophomore Addie Bundy, who recorded six assists during her freshman campaign, should play alongside Rydberg. Midfielder Josie Durr should return as a redshirt senior after she missed the 2021-22 season because of an injury. She started 28 games in her first three seasons. Iowa’s 2021-22 offense was eighth in the Big Ten with 1.55 goals per game. After losing forward Alyssa Walker, who tallied a team-high nine goals last season, the Hawkeyes will look to sophomore forward Kenzie Roling to improve their attack. Roling totaled six goals in 18 games during her first collegiate season. Since starting at Iowa in 2014, DiIanni has compiled an 80-63-11 record with one Big Ten Tournament title under his belt.

Iowa track and field looks to three-peat as Big Ten indoor champs in 2022-23 The Hawkeye men earned their second consecutive indoor conference championship in 2022. The Iowa track and field team continued to establish itself as one of the premier programs in the nation during the 2021-2022 season. The Hawkeye men won their second straight Big Ten Indoor Championships on Feb. 26, and Director of Track and Field Joey Woody repeated as Big Ten Indoor Coach of the Year. The Hawkeyes saw success at the national level as well. Eleven total Hawkeye entries — nine individuals and two relay teams — advanced to NCAA Indoor Championships. Sophomore Jenoah McKiver won the Big Ten
Men’s Indoor Track Athlete of the Year Award, earned two All-American honors, and finished second in the 400-meter dash at the NCAA Indoor Championships. He broke Iowa’s indoor and outdoor 400-meter times in 2021-22. Although McKiver was injured for a portion of the 2022 outdoor season, he will be a top contender for the indoor and outdoor 400-meter NCAA titles in 2022-23 while the Hawkeyes try for their third consecutive Big Ten men’s indoor title.
Young cross country squad looking to improve Amid an up-and-down season, the Hawkeye XC squad showed promise for fall 2022. The Iowa cross country program closed the 2021 season with a top-15 finish at the Hawkeye-hosted NCAA Midwest Regional. The Iowa men and women each won one meet this year. The Hawkeye men won the Hawkeye Invite to begin the season, and the women won Nebraska’s Dirksen-Greeno Invite. Both the Hawkeye men and women teams also competed in the Gans Creek Classic and Bradley
Pink Classic. With just three seniors leaving the men’s squad and two graduating from the women’s team, the Hawkeyes will return the majority of the roster in 2022-23. Noah Healy, Jeff Roberts, and Konnor Sommer are graduating from the men’s team, and Mallory King and Jessica McKee have run their final race for the women.
Iowa women’s swim and dive looking for fresh start in 2022-23 The Hawkeyes didn’t win a single meet in 2021-22 as they competed with a slim, 13-athlete roster.
Jenna Galligan/The Daily Iowan
The Iowa women’s swimming and diving team competes against UNI at the Campus Recreation and Wellness Center on Oct. 1, 2021. After cutting four sports at the end of the 2020-21 academic year, the University of Iowa athletics department reinstated women’s swimming and diving in February.
Iowa women’s swim and dive struggled in 2021-22. The Hawkeyes posted an 0-7 record in dual meets, finished last at the Big Ten Championships, and had no NCAA Championship qualifiers. Iowa had just 13 athletes on its roster last season. The Hawkeyes had a team of 34 as recently as 2019-20. Iowa’s shrunken roster is the result of a lawsuit four ex-Hawkeye swimmers brought against the University of Iowa in September 2020. Sage Ohlensehlen, Alex Puccini, Christina Kaufman, and Kelsey Drake alleged the UI had violated Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 when it announced the discontinuation of its NCAA Division I women’s swim and dive program in August 2020. Iowa men’s and women’s swim and dive were both slated for
discontinuation at the end of the 2020-21 academic year. An out-of-court settlement between the four women’s swimmers and the UI led to the reinstatement of the Hawkeye women’s swim and dive program. The men’s swim and dive team is still discontinued. The 2021-22 season was Nathan Mundt’s first as head coach of the Hawkeyes. He replaced Marc Long, who directed the Iowa men’s and women’s swim and dive programs for 17 years. Long stepped down from his position on April 20, 2021. Mundt took over a month later. Mundt was an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator under Long from 2008-16. Mundt was coach of the Iowa Flyers Swim Club — an Iowa City-based club swim team that practices in the Campus Recreation and Wellness Center — from 2016-21.

Tennis excited to Iowa volleyball continue development welcomes new head coach In 2021-22, the Hawkeyes earned three of their seven wins during the last six matches of the season.
Jim Barnes will lead the Hawkeyes in 2022-23.
The Jim Barnes era of Iowa volleyball is set to begin in 2022-23. Barnes was hired as the Hawkeyes' new head coach on Dec. 28, 2021. Barnes previously coached at Tulane University from 2016-2021, where he led the Blue Wave to a record of 18-14 in his last season with the program. Former Hawkeye head coach Vicki Brown was fired on Nov. 4 following a 3-19 start to the 2021 season. Assistants Dave Brown and Willam Tatge stepped in to be co-head coaches to finish the season. Under Tatge and Brown, Iowa won three of its last eight games to finish the 2021 season, including a win over Indiana in the two coaches' debut and a senior night victory against Maryland. Freshman setter Jenna Splitt transferred to Butler after
the end of the season. Splitt had a successful freshman year, finishing second on the squad in assists with 223. Senior outside hitter Courtney Buzzerio will play for Pittsburgh as a graduate transfer for the 2022 season. Buzzerio was named second-team All-Big Ten in 2021 and led the Hawkeyes in kills with 436 in the 2021 campaign. Senior middle blocker Hannah Clayton transferred to Purdue for the 2022 season where she will be a graduate transfer. Clayton finished with 89 blocks on the season. Outside hitter Audrey Black and setter Bailey Ortega will return to the Hawkeyes this fall. Black recorded 46 kills for the Hawkeyes in her sophomore season, and Ortega registered 838 assists. The Hawkeyes have added seven players via the transfer portal since Barnes was hired.

Iowa’s Marisa Schmidt eyes the ball before hitting a shot during a women’s tennis match between Iowa and Michigan State at the Hawkeye Tennis & Recreation Complex on April 27. The Hawkeyes defeated the Spartans, 4- 3.
The Iowa tennis team played its best matches at the end of the 2021-22 season. The Hawkeyes earned three of their seven wins this season over the final six contests of the year. Iowa beat Rutgers and then Michigan State twice, including a 4-3 win in the first round of the Big Ten Tournament in Iowa City. Iowa only had six active players for the majority of the 2022 spring season, so every player had to participate in both a singles and doubles match. Four of those six athletes — sophomores Marissa Schmidt and Barbora Pokorna, junior Mehra Vipasha, and senior Samantha Mannix — will return to Iowa City. Alexa Noel, the 2021 Big Ten Freshman and Player of the Year, did not participate in any spring matches because of an ankle injury. Noel transferred to Miami following the 2021-22 season.
Pokorna was the only Hawkeye to post a winning singles record this spring, going 12-5 in 17 completed matches. “I think that it was overall a season of learning and growing and I think the team really came together late in the season,” head coach Sasha Schmid told The Daily Iowan following the season. “I think hopefully we can build on that and have a good summer and kind of reload and get ready for next season.” Iowa has two recruits — Pia Kranholdt from Germany and Daianne Hayashida of Peru— set to join the Hawkeyes next fall. Kranholdt and her high school team won the German national title and represented Germany at the World Championships. Hayashida won a gold medal in doubles and took bronze in singles at the 2021 Pan American Games in December 2021.

Iowa Heartlanders bring hockey to Iowa City area
Coralville’s professional minor hockey franchise, housed in Xtream Arena, completed their inaugural season in 2021-22. The Iowa Heartlanders are a professional minor league hockey franchise that competes at Xtream Arena in Coralville. Iowa’s 2021-22 campaign marked their inaugural season. The Heartlanders are members of the ECHL, which serves as the NHL’s “AA” affiliate. They are affiliated with the NHL’s Minnesota Wild and AHL’s Iowa Wild. In their first season, the Heartlanders finished 29-33-9-1 and last place in the seven-team ECHL Central Division. They missed the Kelly Cup Playoffs, as only the top four teams in each division qualified for a postseason berth. With one of the youngest rosters in the league, the Heartlanders started out poorly at 5-12-2-1. But they improved as their campaign progressed, including a stretch where the Heartlanders won nine out of 10 games that propelled them to 26-24-6-1 on the season. Toward the end of the season, they struggled in the final month of the season to fall to last place. Forward Kris Bennett was named the 2021-22 ECHL Rookie of the Year after recording 73 points. His 35 goals were the first time a rookie owned at least a share of the league lead since the 1991-92 season. Bennett, who was the Heartlanders’ first-ever captain, also earned a spot on the ECHL All-Second and All-Rookie Teams. Goaltender Trevin Kozlowski was selected for the 2021-22 ECHL Community Service Award, as the Army-West Point graduate volunteered with the Iowa City VA Medical Center and Salute to the Fallen in the Iowa City/Coralville area while with the Heartlanders. Forward Ryan Kuffner led the Heartlanders with 46 assists, and goaltender Corbin Kaczperski recorded a .921 saves percentage, the highest on the club.
Head coach Gerry Fleming and assistant coach Derek Damon will lead the Heartlanders for the second straight season. The 2022-23 regular season will run from October-April and includes 26 home games.
