Students who complete the Carthage Honors Program are expected to commit themselves to rigorous study and demonstrate intellectual balance and flexibility through their ability to make connections across disciplines.

Students in the Carthage Honors Program must take specific courses offered to Honors students and obtain a total of fourteen Honors credits during their time at Carthage. These credits have been designed to fit into the busy schedules of our Honors students, who are often heavily involved on campus and who typically have challenging schedules.
