She became her high school valedictorian in 1913, graduated from the University of Minnesota in 1917, and earned a master's degree there in 1918.

Both students were supervised by Dunham Jackson;{{r|pioneer}} Carlson's dissertation, in functional analysis, was On The Convergence of Certain Methods of Closest Approximation.{{r|mgp}} Career and contributionsShe joined the Minnesota faculty, and remained there until her retirement in 1965 as a full professor.{{r|pioneer}} She has no record of supervising doctoral dissertations,{{r|mgp}} and published little research after the work of her own dissertation.
