Carroll University Top Questions

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

Marcus

I wish I would have encouraged some of my friends to attend Carroll. I've met a lot of new friends from playing basketball and being part of several campus groups, but it would have been nice to have a few friends from home, attending this school.

Laura

I wish I would have known that I had to pay a massive amount to complete a trip/ class combination as a graduation requirement, that was an unfortunate surprise.

Rachel

I wish I had known how few majors they have and how expensive it would really be for me. I also wish I had known how many jocks and girls would be at this school

Ashley

I wish I would have known to apply for as many scholarships that I can to avoid taking out school loans.

Elizabeth

This is an interesting campus with combination of old buildings and modern concept of education, as those things have been explained in the web-site and the counselor had directly explained in the recruitment phase. The bright pictures and attached information, this is also a campus with a multi-cultural context and still with a strong personal dignity as the very basic foundation of learning as a future leader

Emma

Before attending Carroll I wish I had known more about Waukesha, the city Carroll is located in. Although Waukesha is a fairly large city, there are not many activities or restaurants within walking distance from the campus. This was quite unfortunate for those who did not have a car on campus and made for some boring weekends.

Gretta

My only wish is that I was able to attend a high school that provided me with a better education to start with and that someone, perhaps a guidance councelor, talked to me about my choices post high school. Things would be way different had I had a better base to start from.

Angel

One of the things I wished I had known before coming to Carroll is the parking situation. As a commuter, I rely on my car to get to campus. Parking is very competitive at Carroll.

Hannah

Before making the decision to attend Carroll College, I wish I would have known all of the extra costs that are entailed when going to a private college. Expenses add up without realizing it. I definitely wish I would have known that books are cheaper when bought online and not through the bookstore. Going to a private college has made me more aware of my expenses.

Kendra

I wish I would have known more about their academic programs. Also I wish I would have looked more into the residence life.
