The Four Pillars

These four pillars describe the Waldorf University experience: Tradition, Passion, Community and Success. They are foundational to Waldorf’s history, reflective of Waldorf’s present and aspirational to Waldorf’s future.

TRADITION

Founded in 1903, Waldorf University’s core strengths are its history and a strong value system. Our founders valued service to community—and that hasn’t changed. Our longevity is due to academic excellence, solid traditions in fine arts and a broad program of athletics. But most importantly, we understand this experience as a gift from God that comes with a responsibility to serve the world.

PASSION

Past and present, our students make Waldorf University what it is today, and what it will be in the future. With students from every state and many countries on campus, Waldorf University appreciates the diversity our students bring to our learning community and the enrichment it brings to us all. We encourage our residential students to pursue all of their passions—extracurricular, faith-based, academics-focused or otherwise—because we know that well-rounded people excel. Many of our online students know this to be true, as they already juggle family, work and now their passion to attain their educational goals.

Our faculty and staff take great pride in teaching and serving our students. They carry and instill the values, traditions and mission of Waldorf University. In or out of the classroom, on campus or online, we take great pride in helping our students pursue their passions, reach their educational goals and leave Waldorf with a solid foundation to begin their careers.

COMMUNITY

Located in the heart of Forest City, Iowa, the Waldorf University campus is the foundation of our Warrior Nation. With a global reach beyond the campus, our community embraces unity and fellowship. From a first step onto campus or speaking with a staff member on the phone, students instantly encounter that something special that is the Waldorf community. By building shared memories and knowledge, we develop a unique loyalty to the purple and the gold.

SUCCESS

Leading the charge for change since its inception, Waldorf University has always had scholastic innovation at its core. Our approach couples the traditional classroom setting with the latest online courses, providing all of our students—whether they’re in Forest City or not—with an academic experience that fits their needs. Our students are Warriors in every respect. We define success as the triumph of the human spirit—and we use our successes to serve others.
