Thomas Aquinas College is unique among American colleges and universities, offering a faithfully Catholic education comprised entirely of the Great Books and classroom discussions.
Truth, and nothing less, sets men free; and because truth is both natural and supernatural, the College’s curriculum aims at both natural and divine wisdom.
The intellectual tradition and moral teachings of the Catholic Church infuse the whole life of Thomas Aquinas College, illuminating the curriculum and the community alike.
Do you enjoy grappling with complex questions? Are you willing to engage in discussions about difficult concepts, with the truth as your ultimate goal?
There is always something to do at TAC — something worthwhile, something fulfilling, and something geared toward ever-greater spiritual and intellectual growth.
Nothing speaks more to the versatility of the College’s academic program than the good that our alumni are doing throughout the Church and the world.
A mudslide has shut down both lanes on Highway 150 between the College’s California campus and Santa Paula. Although the California Department of Transportation has begun preparations for clearing the roadway, officials do not expect to finish the work before sometime this summer. Therefore, if you will be traveling to campus from points south, please be sure to give yourself enough time to navigate the detour route, which will take you along Highways 126, 101, and 33.

The most valuable thing we walk away with after graduation is the discipline of approaching new ideas critically and patiently, focused on objective truth.

My training at TAC has obviously been very helpful, and my philosophical training has turned out to be quite applicable to this scientific fiel
The intellectual formation was critical; it allowed me to develop the ability to think logically, to follow through a logical argument, and thereby to make the most of my seminary education.
/* /*]]>*/ I use my TAC training in textual analysis, in Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry, in Greco-Roman history, in modern philosophy (such as Kant and Hegel), in poetry and literary theory, in Aristotelian cosmology – I could go on and on.
/* /*]]>*/ I am daily grateful for the education and intellectual training I received from the College. It has given me not only a thirst for the first principles in my discipline, but the means by which to make those known and applicable to the case at hand.
/* /*]]>*/ My four years at Thomas Aquinas College served as a great preparation for a career in journalism and public affairs.
/* /*]]>*/ I thank God for giving me the life-changing experience of being a student at Thomas Aquinas College.
/* /*]]>*/ My time at the College helped me begin to acquire the virtues necessary in becoming a disciple before learning to be a leader. I am very grateful to the College for giving me the environment in which I was able to grow in those virtues.
Programming is really just applied math and logic, and the College prepared me well in both.

/* /*]]>*/ I always tell people, if you can read Aristotle, you can read an insurance policy. Every time I’m asked to parse a sentence in a policy or debate the meaning of the word ‘occurrence,’ I feel like I’m back in college.
