Carroll University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Ashley

I wish I had known more about the different teachers I would have. I also wish I had known more about the different student jobs available.

Sheila

One thing I wish I knew before I came to Carroll would be that I could have sat in on classes that pertained to my major (Nursing) as a high school student. This would have helped me because then I would have felt even more comfortable in my classes that I am currently enrolled in.

Melinda

A) Social Life B) Sleep C) Good Grades ... Pick two, Welcom to college.

Angela

I wish that I would have known more about the college lifestyle. That i would have known how to be more independent and aware of other poeple's behaviors and my own spending habits. Everyone is different, but in college that fact kind of hits you in the face and you need to respect everyone.

Elizabeth

Before I came to school I wish I knew how to communicate better with other people. The first few weeks of school were very exciting, but also very challenging. I did not have the social skills to know how to communicate and make friends in a quick manner. The school set up activities to try and show freshman that making friends was not very hard, but after the activities, making friends was still a struggle.

Krystal

That it wasn't as big a liberal arts college as I thought. Not really liberal at all. There is no room here for counter-culture, artsy, zany types.

Mark

I wish that I could have taken more health science courses because being a nursing major, it would have prepared me more.

Travis

The overall cost of Carroll is pretty steep. There are plenty of scholarships available but I have still been forced to apply for loans to cover the excess costs.

how expensive it was

Rebecca

I wish I had known how the grading scale works at this school. In order to get an A or 4 points you need to get a 95{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} in a class. The grades are based on an A,AB,B,BC,D,F scale and it's very confusing and very hard.
