Catholic Colleges and Universities

We must educate our children, and not just train them in their chosen profession. Catholic Colleges and Universities, with their courses in Philosophy and Ethics, as well as an on-campus chapel, can help our children become Catholic Professionals.

In order to help you and your family select an appropriate college for your children, we offer you our list of Catholic colleges and universities. If you know of a Catholic college or university, please send us e-mail with the web address of the college.

National Conference of Catholic Bishops / United States Catholic Conference

The National Conference of Catholic Bishops (NCCB) and the United States Catholic Conference (USCC) are the organizations of the American Catholic hierarchy. Through these distinct but closely related organizations—one a canonical entity, the other a civil corporation—the bishops fulfill their responsibilities of leadership and service to Church and nation.
