International Students
Coe College offers you the best of both worlds. Located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, a safe Midwestern city (population 250,000), but close enough to a number of big cities like Chicago, Omaha, and Minneapolis, you'll have plenty of opportunities to experience big-city excitement along side small-town charm.
Close, Personal Attention
Our admission staff is ready to help you through the application process. Once you are on campus, our full-time International Student Advisor will help you with immigration questions and campus information. Since Coe is a residential campus, this means you won't have to worry about finding housing on your own—it's right here on campus. We have five furnished residence halls and six College-owned apartments, only steps away from your classes.
There are a number of organizations and activities for you to get involved in—Physics Club, International Club - you can even write for the Cosmos (our student newspaper). These groups will give you the chance to meet interesting people, learn something new, and have some fun!
As an international student, you won't be the only one away from home—Coe's 1,300 students represent most states and more than 20 countries!

"I love that Coe is such a strong school, but without any hint of elitism. The students work hard and get everything possible out of their education here, but without any arrogance about it."
