Company History

Challenging conventional thinking may not be a practice one typically associates with a small Catholic college, but at Aquinas College, it is a way of life. At Aquinas, critical thinking plays a vital role in every classroom and is woven into every subject. Aquinas is a place where students of every age, nationality and religion are welcomed, yet feel challenged, and learn that the only limits to success are those they place upon themselves.
