- School Information
- "Carleton College is committed to providing a true liberal arts education—a curriculum that challenges our students to learn broadly and think deeply. Instead of training for one narrow career path, Carleton students develop the knowledge and skills to succeed in any walk of life. "The most important thing our students gain is how to learn for a lifetime. Critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, effective communication: these are the tools that transform a collection of facts and figures into a way of understanding the world." The college has a 9:1 student-faculty ratio, enrolls over 2,000 students, and offers 33 majors and 37 minors.

Phase I of Carleton's antiracism program was completed in May 2021.
