http://www.topherreimroc.com/FullScholarship\n-There's a website I used my senior year of High School during the big college search. Not only did it help me search through specific school information (such as the best school for specific degrees, costs, locations, etc...), helping me find which one was right for me, but in the meantime it lets you apply for numerous student loans, scholarships, and aid funds. I highly recomment it to anyone in the college decision process.
Iowa State has a better reputation than Iowa.  However, Iowa is getting a bunch of new faculty and is getting newly remodeled buildings, which is a definate plus.  You should definately visit them all - they pay for it anyway - and see which ones have people that you can see yourself working for and if they are places where you could be happy.  Conventional wisdom is that you should like at least three professors in the school to which you are going.  Your current advisor can give you the US News and World Report relative rankings of graduate programs.  They have one that is specifically for organic.
