Tour for Freshman

Creative, self-motivated students come to us from 35 states and 33 foreign countries, bringing with them an enthusiasm for learning and a dedication to making the world a better place.


Group of Students on the North Lawn, by the rope swingOur students defy labels and stereotypes, redefining today's expectations for college students, they are:

• engaged in what is happening around them 
• active rather than passive learners and problem solvers
• letting their passions determine what they will do when they graduate

One aspect of COA's uniqueness is its small size of 280 students. Some people may think this sounds like heaven, a nice transition from their equally small high school or a long-awaited break from the mayhem of a large school. Others may wince at such a low number, but as you continue on the tour pay attention to all the things our size offers and maybe you'll see why it makes so much sense to us to keep things small and personal.
