J-Term Programs

25,000 miles of campus

A J-Term program is held in January, between the end of the fall semester and the beginning of the spring semester. J-Term programs are led by a PLU faculty member, cover a wide range of subjects, and range in location from the Tacoma Hill Top to Antarctica. The chance to participate in these international and domestic study programs lets you immerse yourself in a country, culture or discipline that you never imagined - and get credit for it, too. All J-Term programs are approved for PLU institutional aid as well as federal and state financial aid.

Once again, all 7 continents will be represented this J-Term!
