Carroll College

A Catholic institution, Carroll College strives to prepare students for careers, lifelong learning, and service to others. A rich array of undergraduate programs at the college allows students to explore subjects like anthrozoology, strategic finance, public health, and international relations. While Carroll does not currently offer any fully online programs, students can earn a master of accountancy in a hybrid format. The college encourages all students to participate in one of 150 international exchange and service-learning opportunities in countries such as Mexico, New Zealand, and Uganda. The content of these experiences can vary significantly, with students serving as teachers, environmental advocates, and relief organization workers. To apply to Carroll, you must submit high school transcripts, ACT or SAT scores, and a personal essay outlining academic interests and professional goals. While not required, the college encourages applicants to also submit a letter of recommendation from a teacher, counselor, or church leader.
