A Fully Accredited College

Your education is an investment and the quality of that education matters.

Holy Apostles is accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education, the Connecticut Office of Higher Education, and the Association of Theological Schools.

Why Students Choose Holy Apostles

FAITHFUL

The Catholic university is “born from the heart of the Church,” as St. John Paul II stated in Ex Corde Ecclesiae.

From its very foundation, Holy Apostles College & Seminary has dedicated itself to proclaiming the truth and forming our students to do the same.

AFFORDABLE

At Holy Apostles, we believe that a debt-free graduate is a gift to the Church. We are one of the most affordable colleges recommended by the Cardinal Newman Guide.

FLEXIBLE

Holy Apostles makes a quality education accessible. You can complete your degree any time, anywhere. Our small class sizes make learning easier, providing personalized attention from our excellent faculty.

Who Can Apply?

Take Credit! is designed for academically prepared students who want a head start on higher education.

  • High School Juniors & Seniors who have completed at least 10th grade.
  • Homeschool students meeting equivalent academic standards.
Admissions staff are available to help families determine readiness and answer questions before enrollment.

The Take Credit Advantage

The Take Credit! Program is designed to meet a real need among Catholic families: how to begin college in a way that preserves flexibility, strengthens formation, and prepares students for long-term success.

Too often, early college options ask students to move ahead academically without adequate structure, or to choose convenience at the expense of formation. This pathway offers a better alternative—one that respects the unique strengths of Catholic secondary and homeschool education while providing a clear and faithful bridge into college.

Academic Advantage

Rather than entering college unprepared, students are gradually introduced to college-level expectations in a structured environment that builds discipline, writing ability, and intellectual maturity.

On Your Schedule

With fully online, asynchronous courses, students can integrate college work into their existing school rhythm, extracurricular commitments, and family priorities, without sacrificing quality or accountability.

Affordable Tuition

Families can begin reducing the cost of college early while maintaining confidence that the credits earned are meaningful, transferable, and part of a larger academic journey.

The Core

Every Class. Catholic at the Core.

Our core curriculum is not an add-on or a set of isolated requirements. It is the heart of the undergraduate experience.

The liberal arts are taught through a Catholic lens, forming students intellectually, spiritually, and morally. Philosophy, theology, history, literature, and the human sciences are integrated into a coherent vision of truth, one that recognizes faith and reason as partners, not competitors.

At Holy Apostles:

  • Every class is a Catholic class
  • Every subject is ordered toward truth, goodness, and beauty
  • Every student is formed, not just trained
