On-Campus Courses

Every academic division at Carthage offers J-Term courses, around 90 in all. The cost of an on-campus J-Term course is included in a year’s tuition at Carthage.

Students who stay on campus for J-Term spend the month in intensive study of a single subject. They build relationships with their professors, explore topics outside their majors or minors, solve problems, and have fun.
