Catholic colleges and universities in states across the US have been around for a long time: the first Catholic institution in the US was founded in 1789. Today, the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities reports that there are over 200 Catholic higher education institutions in the US representing approximately 686,000 students. These include Catholic universities and colleges and Catholic universities and colleges with seminaries.
Catholic colleges and universities aren't restricted to Catholic applicants. These schools are grounded in the principle of serving others, and they also welcome international students. Academic programs include undergraduate bachelor's degrees, associate's degrees and certificates that meet the needs of a diverse student body from countries around the world. Available fields of study cover religious and theological studies, and also the same range of programs you would expect at any world-class university (arts, architecture, agriculture, business, computer science, education, health, law, public administration, technology, etc.). Many Catholic colleges and universities in the US have achieved national and international attention for their teaching-based programs designed to encourage student commitment to service and social justice no matter what the major.
So don't forget to search out what the Catholic colleges and universities in the state and the rest of the country have to offer.
