J-TERM is a three week intensive learning opportunity to enroll in a general education course in either Arts, Humanities, Social Sciences, Communications, Math, or Science.
Enrolling in a J-TERM course will lighten your credit load during the regular semester.
We do recommend that students enroll in no more than two J-TERM courses due to the compact learning time frame. All classes are two credit offerings and will be offered in an online format.
Students can register for these classes at the same time as they register for Spring Semester.
The Department offers courses in four different content areas:
Communications
