Visitors ask...Choosing a Catholic College

It must be that time of year when high school juniors and their parents are contemplating life after their senior year. I have had a number of visitors searching for Catholic colleges and "Newman" has appeared in the "search string." I think I can assist... The Cardinal Newman Society is an organization that works to strengthen and renew Catholic education. One of the features of this society is "The Newman Guide" -- a list of recommendations that is by particular criteria that the society sets. Here is the list they published for 2007 ; each year, the list may change according to their criteria. I hope this helps those who are seeking!

Catholic Colleges listed in the Newman Guide

The Newman Guide is intended for Catholic parents and students in their search for a Catholic College or University. I provide the link to the Guide solely as a service . As stated in the foreword to this publication : Colleges listed in The Newman Guide are genuinely Catholic, with an indication of those that are most loyal to the Catholic tradition. The colleges and universities mentioned vary considerably, but they have in common a serious attempt to teach the Catholic faith in an orthodox manner and to preserve a campus atmosphere that encourages good Christian life. Father Benedict Groeschel, C.F.R. From the Foreword to The Newman Guide Archbishop Elden Curtiss of Omaha, NE, Fr. C. John McCloskey and Professor Peter Kreeft also have contributions in this publication .
