- Mission
- If you are a strong student looking for an excellent college at a very affordable price, then you should seriously consider The College of Idaho. The College of Idaho offers small classes (13:1 student to faculty ratio), excellent faculty (over 81% with their terminal degrees), internships, an academic calendar which allows for and encourages international travel, and opportunities to participate in community-based classes and projects. Work with Habitat for Humanity or travel to Mexico, for a week, to build houses. With more than 50 clubs and organizations on campus, there are many ways to get involved while attending The College of Idaho. The College of Idaho students are part of a 100-year-old legacy of producing Idaho's finest graduates who visibly contribute to improving our local, national and international communities - they are students who are inquisitive, outgoing, and energetic people with strong leadership aptitudes who have the strong desire to be successful in whatever careers they chose to pursue.As a liberal arts college with professional programs, The College of Idaho prepares students to lead fulfilling and productive lives.If you plan to attend graduate school (health science programs, medical school, law school, engineering programs), The College of Idaho has a very positive track record for strong acceptance and placement rates at some of the most highly reputable programs in the country. Beginning in the Fall 2010, The College of Idaho will introduce a new curriculum. The PEAK Program offers a curriculum design and college experience that distinctively educates and ensures that every graduate of The College of Idaho leaves with a set of professional skills in addition to a broad and deep liberal arts education. With the PEAK Program students design their own combination of major and minor programs across four areas that will make them better prepared, more confident, more attractive to employers, graduate schools, and pre-professional programs than graduates of the traditional distribution systems common at most colleges. The College's 50-acre campus includes walking trails, athletic fields, academic buildings, art gallery, auditorium, full size gymnasium, swimming pool, weight and aerobics room, and an outdoor amphitheater. The College of Idaho is located in "The Treasure Valley". The Treasure Valley is a geographic area rich in wilderness, scenic beauty and a mild climate year around. Students and classroom experiences take advantage of an environment with outdoor opportunities that are largely unparalleled anywhere else in the country such as skiing, snow shoeing, hiking, mountain climbing, white water rafting, kayaking, exploring the desert, or playing golf and tennis outdoors. Our location is twenty five minutes from downtown Boise, Idaho (a metropolitan community of over 500,000 people), and is easily accessible by air or automobile. Boise is half way between Salt Lake City, Utah, and Portland, Oregon, by interstate, and is located just 25 minutes from the Boise Airport which has many direct flights to cities such as Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, Salt Lake City, Denver, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
