Knowledge, faith, and understanding can be gained through perseverance, dedication, and commitment when moving forward on one’s journey in life. “With God all things are possible.” (Matthew 19:26)

Upon reflection of my journey in enrolling in the Graduate Diploma in Catholic Studies at Assumption University, I found the course content engaging, enriching, and enlightening about Catholicism, the diversity of faiths, and how it is represented in our modern world. Additionally, the course flexibility for online classes in a synchronous format, small class sizes with peers, feedback and guest speakers allowed for a more enriching and engaging environment to learn and grow with my peers when critically thinking and thinking in depth about topics that may challenge our understanding on a diversity of faiths. For example, the Dialogue and Catholicism course offers a more broadened perspective, awareness, and understanding of the importance dialogue plays in connection with a diversity of faiths whereby challenging us to think more deeply, critically, and broadly to learn and grow as individuals in a shared understanding of faith. Moreover, I am grateful and appreciative for the opportunity and the experience to have been given to participate in this program. The dedicated, welcoming, knowledgeable, and supportive faculty and staff are second to none in supporting and assisting individuals on their journey to achieve their educational goals. Therefore, I highly recommend and encourage individuals seeking spiritual enrichment to further their individual goals to learn and grow to get connected with Assumption University.”
