Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Hi Moms!

I just heard about this new Catholic University on Life on the Rock (EWTN).

It is called Our Lady Seat of Wisdom Academy

Apparently, it is about half the price of some of our authentic, Catholic universities here in the states.

The website mentions that some students have come from the states for 2-3 years and then transferred their credits to Steubenville and Christendom, as a way to say money.

Thought some moms might be interested in this option.

Happy discerning!

i was watching the exact same show!!

it looks very neat - but the prices didn't seem to be all that much different, especially since they do not grant any degrees.

but it sounded very interesting, and i was showing the website to dh right after the show.

Room and board seems comparable to what we we've seen at most of these smaller Catholic colleges. Tuition does look like it is substantially less (about a third of the cost), but as Laura mention if they are not offering degrees then it's comparing different things.
