I can't say anything about the academics or what the other reviewers said. I came here to visit a…read morefriend (actually my close friend's sister) during my spring break in April 2015. I was amazed on how beautiful the campus is and wish colleges look like this in Southern California. The food was pretty good at the dining hall but I do think st. Olaf college has better food. Also people compare st Olaf and Carleton based on how they look but to be honest, I feel that both of the schools are beautiful in their own way and I don't think one school is more beautiful than the other. since my friend was a freshmen, she was in a resident hall with another roommate so I slept in a cot. Many students thought I was a prospective student since the weekend I was there was prospie weekend for high school seniors to come and stay at Carleton. I kind of wish I said I was and say that Carleton has been my dream college, just to see how the students would react or if they would believe me. But I didn't. The school has their own movie theater so they show movies sometimes. I watched Into the Woods when I was there. They also have a little town close by that you can walk too which is nice. The houses are cool and some of them students can live in. The school also has an arboretum but it was kind of bare like the rest of Carleton since it wasn't really warm yet. Even though, Carleton is nice to visit, I don't think I can live or go to school here. There isn't much around or a city kind of close by. It takes about 1.5-2 hours to go Minneapolis in the van. Transportstion isn't really good like it is at haverford college near philly where my friend's older sister went. Also don't get me started on the weather. I came at a pretty good time actually where the weather was in the high 60s low 70s. Although people probably knew I wasn't from there because I wore a sweater, t-shirt, and jeans. People were in spaghetti straps and shorts since the weather is warm to them. But I heard it gets VERY cold in the winter and sometimes it is still cold and there is some snow in May. I would be afraid to drive or even want to go outside. I love being able to drive where ever I want in so cal in the winter. The only thing I have to worry about is the rain. I wish I can have the best of both worlds with the New England style buildings and the weather. Seriously, colleges don't look like this in so cal. Even though it was fun visiting, I didn't connect with any of her friends like I did with the older sister. I think part of it was cuz I was there for a short visit but even then, none of her friends really interacted with me like her older sister's friends did when I was at haverford. It would be awesome to come back here one day to Minnesota to visit and explore more. But I think the east coast is my favorite. Check out the school and look into the programs they have. I know they have a good geology program.

I was a national merit finally.A recruiter came to my high school and promised me that I along with…read moreall other merit finalists would receive a scholarship. I decided to attend but when I got there I llearned that the recruiter lied. I tried to contact the president but she would not talk to me and her chief of staff had the secretary repeatty lie to me by telling me falsely that she would call me back. When I was there the culture was all about weekend drinking.Not a good school with ethical people to entrust your future to.
