About This School

Catholic Distance University is a private nonprofit institution located in Charles Town, West Virginia with approximately 95 undergraduate students enrolled. In-state tuition is $9,600 per year.

Worth considering if you're a committed Catholic adult learner seeking theology or philosophy coursework in a fully online format — the tiny enrollment of just 95 undergraduates means you'll get a highly personalized, faith-centered experience rather than a traditional campus community. However, the extremely small size raises real questions about academic breadth, extracurricular life, and long-term institutional stability that families should investigate before committing. Ask directly about graduation rates, graduate outcomes, and accreditation standing before enrolling.
