There’s never been a better time to be a Kohawk. Coe College is ranked among the top 20 percent of all colleges and universities in the United States.
Our location in the heart of the Cedar Rapids, Iowa provides students with access to over one thousand internships and jobs. Cedar Rapids boasts the lowest unemployment rate of any city in the nation for college graduates.

In fact, 100% of students are guaranteed an internship, research project or off-campus study experience.
Our low student-to-faculty ratio means students have access to accomplished, knowledgeable professors who are interested in their success. Coe faculty members routinely use their connections to help students land jobs and acceptance into top graduate programs.

“If it weren’t for Coe, I wouldn’t have been able to spend time interning in Washington or attend the U.N. externship in New York.”
