School’s Comments:
Institution: Aquinas College is a private, Roman Catholic college offering bachelor’s and master’s degree programs in elementary and secondary education and bachelor’s degrees in English and history. Our vision is to be a leader in the formation of educators who are sent forth to teach, preach and witness to truth and charity for the salvation of souls and the transformation of culture.
We find our place in the heart of the Church, called to serve Catholic education by offering our students a holistic, human formation in the liberal arts as well as professional formation to prepare them to serve as Catholic educators.
At Aquinas College, we have the unique privilege of providing the intellectual and professional formation of the young sisters of the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia. In addition, we allow the beautiful and rich overflow of our educational program to be given to others who share in our vision, providing a means for lay students to receive the same high-quality intellectual and professional formation that the sisters are privileged to receive.
