Ave Maria University School Description

Founded in fidelity to Christ and His Church in response to the call of Vatican II for greater lay witness in contemporary society, Ave Maria University exists to further teaching, research, and learning at the undergraduate and graduate levels in the abiding tradition of Catholic thought in both national and international settings. The University takes as its mission the sponsorship of a liberal arts education curriculum dedicated, as articulated in the apostolic constitution Ex Corde Ecclesiae, to the advancement of human culture, the promotion of dialogue between faith and reason, the formation of men and women in the intellectual and moral virtues of the Catholic faith, and to the development of professional and pre-professional programs in response to local and societal needs. As an institution committed to Catholic principles, the University recognizes the importance of creating and maintaining an environment in which faith informs the life of the community and takes expression in all its programs.

As a Catholic institution of higher education dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, our patroness, we know that her Son, Jesus Christ, is the divine Teacher who opens our minds and hearts to the fullness of Truth. "He who abides in me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without me you can do nothing" (John 15:5).” He is the source and goal of everything we do, as we educate laity, priests and religious who will go forth boldly to foster a true culture of life and civilization of love.

Ave Maria is committed to building a university that will earn a reputation for excellent teaching, cutting-edge research, and joyful fidelity to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church.

The members of our faculty are also excellent scholars. At the heart of every true university can be found professors who are actively engaged with the world and at the forefront of the search for truth in their respective field. Ave Maria encourages its faculty to research, publish, lecture at international conferences or serve as editors of scholarly journals.

Finally, our joyful fidelity to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church lies behind our expansive academic vision. To be “Catholic” means being universal: open to all true things, and committed to bringing the good news to every aspect of our world. Students at Ave Maria will receive the tools and education to be the next generation of leaders as businessmen, politicians, lawyers, scientists, priests, educators, doctors, dramatists, homemakers, and the list goes on.

Best Answer

Yes, it was started/funded by the Domino's pizza guy! Good school working towards accreditation in the next year or so I think. I know a few people online whose kids go there. Particulary good for music and probably one of the stronger catholic schools in the sciences. Their website has lots of good info.
