Kardashian announced in August 2012 that he will return to the University of Southern California and study law later in the year. USC's Gould School of Law, however, denied this, and stated via its Twitter account that Kardashian had not even applied to the school.

In 2012, Kardashian participated in Fox's now-cancelled dating game show The Choice.

In late 2012, he launched his sock line titled Arthur George.
