If you are a high school junior or senior with at least a 3.0 GPA, you are eligible to apply for admission to Catholic International University and take 100 or 200-level classes after being admitted. Successful applicants who are admitted to our program receive a 50% discount off our regular tuition rates! Choose from an exciting variety of courses including basics such as math and science, theology and philosophy, and liberal arts.

Start earning college credit and getting a jump start on your higher education journey. Many of our home-schooling students also experience a ‘dual credit’ situation and not only receive full college credit for a course but also high school credit.

We have a dedicated admissions professional and an academic advisor ready to help you understand the program and walk you through the application process.

This is a fantastic opportunity to earn credit from a fully accredited university. But perhaps more importantly, this is an opportunity to receive college-level education that comes from ‘the Heart of the Church.” At Catholic International, we offer a rigorous education with the teaching of Christ and the Church at its center.

All courses are offered in a very unique engaging online (and asynchronous) format. So, structuring study time can be extremely flexible. In addition, since all courses are fully accredited, they can be easily transferred to other colleges. Of course, we hope you love it so much here that you will want to discover the exciting integrated opportunities that are available by starting at Catholic International after high school graduation!
