Our signature program.
Your personal experience.
What if you could take a whole month off and dive into something you’re deeply passionate about? Would you choose to build on a skill you already have? Pursue something entirely new? Or even travel to a foreign country and experience an altogether different set of cultural values and customs?
At SMC, this is not a hypothetical question. It’s the foundation of 1项, a program that’s unique to Saint Mary’s College and widely adored by students and faculty alike. You’ll choose from courses and experiences on campus and around the world to design a unique academic experience that’s tailored to your interests.
Let curiosity guide you.
Whether you want to try your hand at podcasting, experiment with West African dance, or travel to Scandinavia to discover the secret to happiness, Jan Term is designed to take you further, and encourage you to pursue your interests. We make sure the constraints of a regular semester won't hold you back. +, the 1项 Scholarship covers 75% of the cost of travel to make the experience even more affordable.
