2023–2024 Academic Catalog

Each year the Carleton College Registrar’s Office publishes a new edition of our Academic Catalog. This website provides information about all courses offered in the current academic year, along with details on academic regulations, major and minor requirements, and requirements for graduation.

Information about Carleton’s approach to the liberal arts, our faculty, academic support resources, and much more can be found on the Carleton Academics website.

NOTE: The previous version of this 2023-24 Academic Catalog is still available during the start of Spring Term 2024.
