Welcome to The Catholic University of America and the School of Professional Studies!

Our school exists to help working-age students advance their careers and lives through educational programs that provide an opportunity to develop new skills or improve on the skills they already have. As you will see on our website, we offer noncredit programs and credit programs that grant associate’s, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees.

Our faculty are experienced professionals who share their extensive practical knowledge about today’s workplace. What you learn in our classrooms today, you will be able to use in your job tomorrow.

Located proudly at the United States’ central Catholic institution of higher education, we believe that God has uniquely created each of our students. Our happy mission is to help each of them grow more fully into the person God intends for them.

To accomplish that mission, the School of Professional Studies staff and faculty place you at the center of their focus. At our school, you are not one of many; you are one of one.  You can expect our undivided attention and support throughout your time with us – when you are investigating programs, applying, studying with us, and even once you are among our proud alumni.  As a team, we will provide you with the support you need to complete your educational program successfully and happily.

I invite you to join us at the School of Professional Studies.

Dr. David P. Long, S.T.L., M.Phil., J.C.D.
