The Carthaki University is located in Thak City, the capital of Carthak.
History
It is one of the oldest and most prestigious centers of learning in the world, and is where the emperors of Carthak have received their education for generations.
Accreditation
The Carthaki University has a ranking system for its magical students who have the Gift. The black robe is the highest rank a graduate can receive. An orange robe is the second highest[1].
Graduates must adhere to the magical laws set about by the university. Inar Hadensra, a powerful Scanran mage in the 5th century HE, didn't want a black robe as he knew the university would try to limit his magic and prowess[2].
The School for Mages

Lessons
