Financial assistance is offered to domestic and international applicants 

With our diverse community, individualized approach, top-tier athletics, and conveniently-located campus, St. Thomas More students are empowered to achieve more – academically, athletically, socially. The academic philosophy is built on the premise that the ability to think critically, embrace the ideas of others, manage one's time, and express one's thoughts is the foundation of a successful, lifelong learner. This ensures that students develop routines, improve study skills, and form a personal connection to their performance. Early college credit/AP courses are available to students interested in moving faster in their academic pursuits and supplemental one-on-one and small group instruction are available for students who need additional support. Our mix of domestic and international students promotes empathy, understanding, and communication. While our beautiful 100-acre lakeside campus with its fields, trails, and woods serve as an extended classroom and a peaceful, safe, comfortable home away from home for our students.
