The #1 Bridge to Catholic College Life Can a student’s Catholic faith survive college or the military? Most new college students want to find a place to belong. They want to be part of a community of people making a difference. The problem is many students struggle to find great friends who share their faith. Walking onto a new campus or base with no friends is overwhelming. There are so many opportunities and decisions to make. Faith usually isn’t at the top of their list. Newman Connection connects students with a Catholic community on campus so their faith thrives in college and beyond. Since 2009, we've connected 600,000+ students to campus ministry in college and are endorsed in 115+ dioceses nationwide, including the Archdiocese of the Military. We ensure students continue their faith journey in college and their military base. Imagine a future where students become lifelong disciples, and their faith survives college and is stronger because of it.
