Coe continues to earn high marks as one of the best liberal arts colleges in America
Coe College continues to be recognized as a top liberal arts college in the country, performing particularly well in categories that relate to contributions to the public good.
Washington Monthly annually ranks colleges based on four categories: access, affordability, outcomes and promoting public service. The publication strives to “measure how much [colleges] help ordinary middle- and working-class students get ahead, encourage democratic participation and service to the country and produce the scholars and scholarship that drive economic growth and human flourishing.”
Recently, Washington Monthly announced Coe as a top liberal arts college, ranking #20 in the nation for access, #89 for affordability and #105 for service.
Niche also released updated national rankings and honored Coe as a Top 100 Liberal Arts in America.
Extensive undergraduate research opportunities across the curriculum and dedicated resources like C3: Creativity, Careers, Community — which helps coordinate connections between students and service opportunities in Cedar Rapids — provide the extra leg up for Kohawks to become engaged citizens. These accolades confirm Coe’s commitment to fostering a welcoming environment which emphasizes critical thinking and hands-on experiences.
“Faculty and staff deserve to be celebrated for their efforts that led to these recognitions. We value a well-rounded and rigorous education, and just as much the success of our students is due to the attention and guidance that they encounter every day,” said Coe College President David Hayes ’93.
