From the founding of Georgetown University by the Society of Jesus in 1789, the tradition of Catholic universities and colleges in North America has had a long and distinguished history. Today, Catholic graduate schools aren't just for Catholics. Often based on the principle of serving everyone equally, they offer graduate degrees (master's and doctoral degrees) as well as graduate diplomas and certificates that meet the needs of a diverse student body from here and abroad. While Catholic graduate schools offer programs in religious and theological studies, they also offer the same range of advanced programs you would expect at any world-class grad school (such as law, medicine, nursing, architecture, pharmacy, business and management, dental, education, engineering, fine arts, technology, etc.). Many Catholic graduate schools in the US and Canada have achieved national and international attention for their commitment to academic excellence and social justice no matter what the major.
So if you're looking for a quality, inspiring graduate school experience, don't forget to research the multitude of options available at Catholic grad schools across North America.
