So I went to college here and I enjoyed my time academically. but since I left a few months ago, I am not sure it was worth the mental pain of going there. Most of administration do not care for students of color, and most non POC were rude and talking for POC. When students complain about something that is harming their environment, they are hated and ostracized both by administration and other students. And the students trying to defend themselves tend to not get their voices heard.
I have been at Carleton for 2 years now and I'll say this: Carleton is a great school, but the worst part about Carleton isn't even the college itself: its the students. Everyone is nice and friendly, but most students are so politically correct that they become rude and immature, even to the point of name calling just because of a disagreement. If you want to go to a college with open minded people and a diversity of thought, Carleton may not be for you. But, if you love a college with rigorous classes and very unique people, then come to Carleton.
Great institution and environment for learning!
Don’t be fooled by the low acceptance rate and claim to prestige! Carleton tries to make up for its inadequacy by apologizing for itself and saying things like, “people who know about Carleton know it’s a good school...” and making itself as rigorous as possible for no reason. Also, although the student body is perfectly fine, it does not justify attending Carleton. If you didn’t get into Harvard, you’ll be better off at a state school, where the students are probably just as good. Carleton is overpriced, stressful, and has an inferiority complex. Also, no one in the real world has heard of it. Not even in Minnesota. Do not go!
Great School. Don't listen to the haters. Puff Puff Pass
Really think about the mental state you are in right now. It is a big chance coming here will make your mental state go wonky. It is up to you if you think the academics is worth the mental instability. Again, my academic career really benefited from this. My mental health has seriously declined.
