Institution: We are a new institution, founded in 2015 as a section of an existing boys’ school. Our intensive two-year program confers a fully accredited European B.A. degree in the liberal arts with French and includes study visits throughout Europe. Our Vatican-awarded two-year M.A. in arts and letters is a low-residency program for researchers, writers and teachers. 

Coed Dorms: Separate halls of residence are provided for male and female students.

People Explain ‘Why I Go to Mass’

‘Why go to Mass on Sundays? It is not enough to answer that it is a precept of the Church. … We Christians need to participate in Sunday Mass because only with the grace of Jesus, with his living presence in us and among us, can we put into practice his commandment, and thus be his credible witnesses.’ —Pope Francis
