John Carroll is a private, coeducational, Jesuit Catholic university providing programs in the liberal arts, sciences, and business at the undergraduate level and in selected areas at the masters level. For more than 31 years, John Carroll has been listed in the U.S. News and World Report as one of the Top-10 schools in the Midwest,
Academically, the University consists of the College of Arts and Sciences and the John M. and Mary Jo Boler School of Business, which both include graduate programs. John Carroll operates on a semester calendar, with two 15-week semesters and three summer sessions. With a small overall unvergradaute enrollment, class sizes are small, and discussions and relationships rich.
A former John Carroll student who now works for NASA stated that "JCU...won’t just make you more employable; it will help you become a better person." While there are various and rich activities on the JCU campus, students also have the opportunity to explore all that the greater Cleveland area has to offer or to study abroad for a portion of their college career.
