Best Answer

Carver was accepted at Highland College in Highland, Kansas. He traveled to the college, but he was rejected when they discovered that he was an African American. In 1890, Carver started studying art and piano at Simpson College in Indianola, Iowa. At the end of his undergraduate career in 1894, recognizing Carver's potential, Joseph Budd and Louis Pammel convinced Carver to stay in Iowa and attend Iowa State for his master's degree.
