<p>I was wondering whether anyone (current Carleton students, perhaps) could suggest the best time to visit the campus? (I.e. when can I get a general "feel" of the college and talk to students/admissions?) I live in the Northeast, so travel will not be a simple day trip. </p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>I would suggest late September or anytime during October--although parents' weekend is October 14-16 and midterm break is Oct. 17. That quarter ends on Nov. 16 and classes begin on Jan. 4 once again.</p>
<p>My D just visited there yesterday - they did have classes on Memorial Day! I think there is a Carleton community on Livejournal, so if you can't get to Carleton when classes are in session, you can "talk" to the students on Livejournal.</p>
