Living and learning at Carroll College is about more than simply earning a degree. It’s about more than preparing for a career. It’s about who you become, and the lives you touch along the way. Here, we engage with one another in ways you simply don’t see other places. We inspire one another. We seek out ways to improve life, and lives, all over the world.
It may be an anthrozoology... student having a breakthrough while training a dog on campus. Environmental science students sharing their future dreams while conducting research in a mountain stream. A couple of friends kayaking the Missouri River together. Or watching our Fighting Saints athletic teams excel on the field or court.At Carroll, it’s about the moments we share. Because more than any knowledge gained, it’s the moments here that make us who we are in life—now and into the future.
Our community lives its faith every day through a Catholic liberal arts tradition of service and social justice. Every week you’ll find hundreds of students coming together for Sunday Mass. And our dozens of service events, Campus Ministry programs, spiritual retreats, and fundraisers personify a community that is dedicated to developing our spirit as well as our minds and contributing to the greater good.
There’s a shared spirit of togetherness at Carroll that is truly exceptional. We believe in each other, challenge each other, inspire and support each other, every day. We believe in being curious and using that curiosity to push the boundaries of what’s possible. We have heart, and you’ll feel it the moment you step on campus.
At the laying of the cornerstone of what he then called "Capitol Hill College," Bishop John Carroll declared, "Knowledge and virtue are the armor with which Capitol Hill College shall strive to equip its students." With these words Bishop Carroll dedicated the site where St. Charles Hall would soon stand: the centerpiece of the college he visioned and built and that would one day bear his name.
From its inception Carroll College has aspired to produce students with "strong minds, great hearts, true faith, and ready hands" (Carroll College 1930 yearbook). For over one hundred years, it has challenged its students to undertake rigorous academic studies informed by the Catholic faith and in service to the local community and beyond.
Our academic programs are recognized as being among the very best. It’s because we provide an experience that transcends classrooms and labs, in which the pursuit of knowledge goes hand-in-hand with service and engaging the world around us.
The moments our students and faculty share in the classrooms, labs, and in the field are powerful ones. Together, they pursue knowledge with curiosity and conviction. With creativity and positivity. Because that’s what it takes if you want to truly touch lives and bring positive change to the world. We do. And in the process, our students experience the moments that empower them to realize their vision of the life they want to lead.
The academic experience at Carroll features small class sizes, labs and facilities that foster state-of-the-art experiential learning, and professors who challenge students as much as they support them. But beyond that, ours is a Catholic liberal arts setting that prepares students in a distinctive way for their chosen profession, for lifelong learning in an ever-changing world, and for success in everything they do.
We believe in the quality of our experience, and we know ours is a special community. But we’re not alone. Carroll is consistently recognized at the national level for excellence in academic programs, athletics, value, and the accomplishments of our alumni.And while no ranking will ever replace the moments our people share together, it’s nice knowing that the world has taken notice.
Founded in 1909 in Helena, Montana, by the Catholic Diocese of Helena, Carroll offers an outstanding and affordable education that positions students aggressively for successful job placement and admission to graduate, law and medical schools. Among the many benefits Carroll students enjoy are cutting-edge undergraduate research and professional internship opportunities in Montana"s capital city and generous merit scholarships.
In 1883, the first bishop of Helena, John Baptist Brondel, proposed a Catholic college in Montana to help produce future priests for the soon-to-be diocese of Helena. Unfortunately, he died before his plans could be realized.Pope Pius X selected as Brondel"s successor a young priest from Dubuque, Iowa: John Patrick Carroll.Prior to his appointment, Carroll was the president of St. Joseph"s College in Dubuque (now known as Loras College).He had been appointed president there just five years after joining the faculty. Upon his arrival in Montana, the newly appointed Bishop articulated three goals: to establish a Catholic school system, to build a cathedral (pictured below), and to carry forward Bishop Brondel’s vision of the first Catholic college in Montana. According to Carroll College historian Dr. Robert Swartout, “Carroll"s most telling qualities were his deep and unwavering commitment to his faith, his intellectual breadth, his strong administrative talents (including his ability to stay focused on the primary task at hand), and his passion for Catholic education".
