Carroll University Top Questions

Consisting of about 3,000 students, Carroll University offers smaller class sizes, which I find really helpful in learning. At Carroll, you are not just a number, but you are a person to the professors. The campus is beautiful and easy to get around. My first year at Carroll consisted of a lot of studying, but also meeting a lot of true friends. At Carroll everyone feels like one big family. They are there for each other, which makes the whole college experience even more memorable.

This school is unique in the fact there is a strong emphasis on service learning. Most of the courses I take (especially in the education field) require students to go to schools and observe/interact with the students and teachers. It is a very rich learning experience that I have found extremely valuable. It helps give students an Idea of what they are studying and either solidifies their degree choice or helps them realize that this isn’t what they really want to do. Students need this when discovering themselves.

They are very diverse and offer great oppertunites to travel abroad.

The unique thing about Carroll is its environment. There are so many different types of people, with different interests. I like this because it gives a person so many options on groups, and anyone can find a place where they fit in.

I really love Carroll because compared to other schools I visited, I felt like the entire campus was really well connected. Professors and students know what is going on all across the campus. The network between students in strong, and information is widely available for events going on with all the different types of students Carroll has. Another thing that is unique with my school is that it is close to Milwaukee and easy to get to for a trip to the city, but Waukesha itself harbors a strong suburban feel with many places to explore.

It is the oldest college in Wisconsin and it has the atmosphere of a large school with the attention and class sizes of a small school.

The Chicago Bears bought their symbol and colors from my school in the early 1900's. I think that's really cool. They also have a really good doctorate of physical therapy program that is 6 years instead of 7.

It is smaller school and you get to know the people in your major because you will normally have more than one class with them. They try their hardest to accomadate or help you out with anything as best as they can.

What makes Carroll College so unique in my opinion is by being a smaller school, people can develop numerous friendships with both students and faculty members alike. Staff members here are genuinely concerned about helping students and will do whatever it takes to help them succeed, which is something that not all colleges/universities can say. This attribute helps a small school like Carroll distinguish themselves from a majority of colleges and offer students with the best possible college environment to learn in.
