  • Do you offer scholarships?
    We do not offer any official scholarships. However, if you are in need of financial aid or would like to talk about a group discount, please do not hesitate to reach out. We offer a competitively priced program that is thousands of dollars less expensive than other schools. This is possible because our founder is a Harvard graduate and builds all technology in house. Schools who offer scholarships matching our price do so at the expense of student support and quality of their programming. An example of this includes schools that 1) have a lack of grading & feedback, 2) rotate teachers every week so that teachers aren't invested in the curriculum or student outcomes, or 3) have mentors that meet with students only once a month.

  • Can international students attend?
    Yes, we offer live class reviews that are convenient for multiple time zones, from European time zones to the Pacific Rim.
  • What is your academic approach?
    Noble Cross uses modern teaching methods and multimedia to make Catholic Philosophy and Theology relatable and applicable. While our courses are more detailed and challenging than others, our certifications will give you greater confidence to succeed in whatever career God wills for you. We teach our courses with Catholic Philosophy as the constant focus. Most Catholic high-school courses bring in philosophy only to help prop up the religion. And most secular philosophy courses teach the philosophy without a grounding in Catholicism. While these are both valid approaches, Noble Cross aims to do it better. We aim to provide both the truths of the Catholic faith and deep philosophy in one, manageable course. Noble Cross provides interactive workshops, realistic examples, and practical training to give the student the best learning experience possible. Courses are not overly technical, but instead focus on providing a common sense view of reality; one that will serve you in any workplace. We do not try to teach you what to observe about the world, rather, we equip you with a framework that shows you how to observe the world. The worldview that you will build will help you in any field of work, whether that be a teacher, religions, programmer, law enforcement, or chemistry. We seek to give you a firm basis of rational thought to tackle problems in any domain. Noble Cross seeks to teach deep philosophy in a practical way. This ensures that wherever you work or live, you will have a grounded and clear view of reality; one that will provide you with confidence in your faith, clarity in your worldview, and joy in the life of the Church.

All classes will be recorded so you can listen to them even if you miss it. Most students can attend 2 out of 3 per week. These students listen to the recording for the ones they can't attend live.
