[Coe](https://www.coe.edu/) 2. [Why Coe](https://www.coe.edu/why-coe) ## Why Coe? Because experience is important to an exceptional education. Because community is a building block to success. Because these years should be some of the most memorable you’ll have. Founded in 1851, Coe College is a nationally recognized four-year private college. But there’s much more to say about Coe, so let’s start with this... - You'll build relationships in the [classroom](https://www.coe.edu/academics). Almost all of our professors hold the highest degree in their fields, so wouldn’t it be great if students were comfortable enough to just pick their brain like you’re having a coffee together? That’s what happens at Coe. We have the most accessible professors in Iowa (\#18 in the nation) according to The Princeton Review. - You'll stack professional experiences, like internships or research, on top of what you study. That leads to a deeper level of learning and helps build an attractive resume before graduation. Coe has been a Top 25 Best Private Schools for Internships for 6 of the last 8 years according to The Princeton Review, and we are also one of just a few private colleges to be a Research for Undergraduate Experiences site, which is sponsored by the National Science Foundation. - You'll become part of a nurturing and [lively campus environment](https://www.coe.edu/student-life). Living and learning go hand-in-hand and we want you to live your best life with great friends. We have the Best Student Support & Counseling Services in Iowa (\#14 in the nation) according to The Princeton Review. Plus, Cedar Rapids has arts, museums, parks, trails, semi-professional sports and festivals — all the amenities of a larger city. ## Think Like a Kohawk ![writing pen - icon](https://www.coe.edu/application/files/5115/3151/2918/writing-pen.png) 3\.6 Average GPA ![Graduation Cap Icon](https://www.coe.edu/application/files/5615/2908/3967/ico-grad-cap.png) 11 :1 Student to Faculty Ratio ![Group of People Icon](https://www.coe.edu/application/files/5115/2667/2415/ico-group-2.png) 16 Average Class Size ![globe lines - icon](https://www.coe.edu/application/files/9115/3151/2905/globe-lines.png) Over 50 % of Students Are from Out-of-State ![Briefcase Icon](https://www.coe.edu/application/files/6715/2667/2413/ico-case-2.png) 100 % of Students Are Guaranteed an Internship, Research or Off-Campus Opportunity ![Group of People Icon](https://www.coe.edu/application/files/5115/2667/2415/ico-group-2.png) 90 % of Students Are Involved in One or More Student Organizations ![coe pennant - icon](https://www.coe.edu/application/files/9815/3151/2903/coe-pennant.png) 35 % of the Student Body Competes in a Varsity Sport ![clipboard - icon](https://www.coe.edu/application/files/3615/3151/2903/clipboard.png) 1 k + Internships, Jobs and Entertainment Opportunities in Cedar Rapids, Iowa ![Joshua Conte ](https://www.coe.edu/application/files/3416/4511/2018/Joshua_Conte_1600x800.jpg) ## Success in the real world ### Joshua Conte ’23 Internships confirm career choices “If I didn't have my internship I wouldn't have had any experience at a law firm going into law school.
