I’m a very Traditional Catholic ( member of the SSPX) and I’m considering going to CUA for Classics. Would a Trad Catholic be fine at CUA? I’m not asking “Will people agree with me on everything?” I don’t care if people disagree with me, and am always open to a polite, scholarly discussion. I just don’t want to be blacklisted for being Traditional.
@Stoic18 my daughter will be attending CUA in the fall and is agnostic. I have the same worries about her since our family is secular and she will not be attending masses or participating in prayer of any kind. I have been assured that everyone is accepted at CUA but of course that remains to be seen and I can’t be 100% sure.
Catholic University is a fit for Stoic18 and for CollegeMom2000’s daughter, We are a faithfully Catholic institution founded by the US bishops, and about 80% of our undergraduates are Catholic. Mass is offered daily (not all Catholic students attend Mass, let alone non–Catholics) and there is a rich spiritual life for those who seek it. Many students - Catholic or not - engage in service throughout DC.
We’re also a national research university in the best tradition of American higher education, with an abundance of science and engineering programs. And we offer 25 D-III sports. Our students are engaged in nearly 100 clubs and organizations.
We welcome all students, and have confidence that our community is one that is inclusive.
