Home-schooled Students

The university of st. thomas

The University of St. Thomas is an ideal setting for home-schooled students with its small class size, variety of degree programs and housing available on campus.

At UST, an expanding community of home-schooled students cites numerous parallels between the quality home school education they received growing up, and the classical, Catholic, liberal arts education offered at UST.

UST offers 31 majors in areas such as international studies, business, environmental studies, psychology, communication and pre-professional programs in law, medicine and dentistry.

With an average class size of 17, UST students receive personal attention from faculty. All incoming freshmen students are assigned to an academic advisor who will assist them throughout their academic career. UST offers a supportive environment where home-schooled students feel challenged academically and supported by the extended family of faculty, advisors and older students.
