Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
When a prospective student walks onto the campus of Carroll College for the first time, they are greeted by the green lawns and brick buildings that scatter the small hill that the Saints call home. It is a small campus, and nothing out of the ordinary at a first glance. The true beauty of Carroll lies not in it's architecture or manicured lawns, but rather in the people that study and live within its walls. The effort of Carroll College's facility to create a welcoming atmosphere is extended into the students themselves. Making a new friend is as easy as walking up to a stranger and introducing yourself.
As if the easy-going and friendly atmosphere aren't enough, Carroll is in the perfect location. Escaping into the wilderness is as simple as a 15 minute drive in any direction. Helena is surrounded by the Rocky Mountains with many hiking, rock climbing, and even skiing areas nearby. The city of Helena is a great community that welcomes Carroll students with open arms. It is a welcoming community that provides a fantastic home for the Carroll College Saints.

Which types of students will excel at your college?
If you don't like to blend into the crowd, Carroll is a great place for you. The small student body allows professors to be on a first name basis with their classes. By your senior year, you will be know across campus by not only professors, but also the rest of the student body.
Carroll is also a great school for people that love to stay active and get outdoors. During the warmer months, an impromptu game of ultimate frisbee is started almost every night, and the winter snows bring about campus wide snowball fights. There is always a car-load of students headed off for a weekend of camping or backpacking and the evenings are scattered with half clad swimmers returning from a dip in the campus pool.
Carroll is a great place for students with a desire to train themselves to be the best they can. If you have a smile and a desire to learn, it may be the place for you!
