Through the Mini-Course Program at Carleton, I was able to explore my interests in psychology and science in an environment that encouraged me to challenge myself. I also met a new group of friends who I stayed connected with long after the program ended. MCP remains a memorable part of my journey that eventually led me to study Health Sciences at Carleton!

MCP 2018: Me, Myself and Science
I really loved my experience as a Mini-Course Program student because it gave me a real idea of what it could be like to be a student at Carleton. The instructor was very passionate about her research and it made me confident that I would have the same experience with professors once I enrolled as an undergraduate student at Carleton!
