Appointments can be scheduled anytime during office hours.

Iowa Private College Week
August 6-10, 2012
Visit Coe, along with many other Iowa private colleges, during Iowa Private College Week. Traditionally held during the first full week of August, this is a great event to start your college search. Each of the 32 Iowa private colleges will open their doors for both a morning and afternoon session, Monday through Friday. If you're counting at home, that is ten opportunities to come out and visit Coe. The program typically consists of a greeting, information session, tour and lunch or refreshments. It is the perfect time to get your first taste of Coe!

Campus Visit Days
For a general overview, Coe's Campus Visit Day is a great time to orient yourself with campus. The day begins with a browsing session to learn about student and support services and ends with a faculty luncheon. In between you will see the campus, meet your admission counselor and connect with students who were in your shoes a few years ago. They decided Coe was the perfect fit for them. We hope you make the same decision!
