The food is awful and the dishes are never clean, the IT department never has anything working (partly not there fault because the University has the oldest and worst wireless in the world), if you hated hight school dont go here, its nothing but high school all over again.

Excellent faculty-very friendly, approachable, and intelligent. However, the student body is rather unfriendly and apathetic.

Rarely did a recruiter or someone in HR ever hear of John Carroll. Some recruiters who would open up as to why another candidate was slected for a job did admit, "Your undergraduate school was not impressive. There were candidates from better schools." (I am sure there were otehr reasons too, but it's noteworthy to hear they don't like or never heard of the school.) The Placement Office at JCU did little beyond telling you to "sell yourself - you've gotta sell yourself", as they kept posting copies from newspapers on the wall. Further, as to being a "Jesuit school" - as if that is something special - everyone is not impressed with a Jesuit school. You are competing against people from the Ivy League, the California state school system, and interviewers who hold their own religious affiliation as better. If you want to spend the rest of your life answering "Where's that?" go to John Carroll.
