International Students

Bishop Carroll is pleased to host international students as part of the student body.  Students of all nationalities and faiths are welcome.

In August 2010, Aquinas Hall was opened as a boarding house for international students who attend Bishop Carroll. This historic building was renovated in the summer of 2009, and is located just steps away from Bishop Carroll's academic building and gymnasium. A local house family resides in Aquinas Hall as well, providing personal contact, supervision and assistance to all boarding students.

Both private and shared rooms are available, along with wireless internet access.  Family-style dinners are served seven days a week. Students have access to laundry facilities and a kitchenette on site. The common area has a large screen TV, a printer, and computers for student use. Boarding students are encouraged to bring their own laptops for use in their rooms.
