Antioch College is a Cooperative Education (Co-op) school, which means you will complete at least three field experiences by the time you graduate. Co-ops are typically full-time, compensated work placements, but they can also be research appointments, independent work or learning, or other experience-based opportunities. Explain the value of experiential, hands-on learning in your educational journey.
