Catholic Distance University (CDU) is a private online Roman Catholic university based in Charles Town, West Virginia.[1] A number of Catholic dioceses partner with CDU to educate those serving in parish ministry.[2]

History

Catholic Distance University was established in 1983 in the Arlington diocese by Bishop Thomas Jerome Welsh.[3] In 2015, the university relocated its headquarters to Charles Town, West Virginia, as part of its strategic vision. CDU offers an accredited bachelor's degree program in theology, a master's degree in theology, a master's degree in theology and educational ministry, graduate certificates, undergraduate certificates, a catechetical diploma, and a variety of catechetical certificates. In fall 2023, the university began offering an AA degree in Liberal Arts taught completely in Spanish. As of Fall 2023, CDU is the only emerging Hispanic-serving institution of higher education in the state of West Virginia. The university's programs are offered completely online; CDU offered its first online program in 2000.[4] According to Georgetown University's Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate, in the academic year 2007–2008, CDU was the top Lay Ecclesial Ministry Program by number of enrollments.[5]

Presidents

In 2003, Paul Loverde became the university president as Thomas Jerome Welsh, the university's founder, became chairman emeritus. Loverde was succeeded by Marianne Evans Mount in 2008.[6]

Academics

Catholic Distance University currently offers the Associate of Arts, Bachelor of Arts, and Master of Arts. It also offers undergraduate and graduate certificates and non-degree programs. All of the degree and certificate programs focus on theology, liberal arts, philosophy, Catholic social teaching, and related subjects.

Accreditation and affiliations

The West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission authorized Catholic Distance University to operate as a degree-granting institution of higher education in West Virginia. It is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission with its Graduate School of Theology accredited by the Association of Theological Schools.[6]

In March 2015 the university was also approved for membership in the International Federation of Catholic Universities on the recommendation of Catholic University of America and Australian Catholic University.[7]
