List of the Smallest Colleges in Montana

While Montana's small colleges don't offer massive athletic programs or a diverse variety of majors for students to choose from, they do have many other benefits that students can appreciate. For example, students are able to interact with their peers and professors on a personal level thanks to small class sizes. Students can also take advantage of being able to essentially design their own majors with academic advisors to best suit their career goals, interests, and strengths.
