Life on Campus

University life is centered not only on learning and academics, but also on the well-rounded cultivation of the body and soul. At CatholicTech, students can engage in a variety of activities including music and choir, athletics, academic and leisurely clubs, and many other activities. Students are also encouraged to start their own clubs, discovering new passions with their peers and celebrating the beauty of God’s creation in the process. These opportunities shape not just scholars, but individuals who thrive in all areas of life. 

CatholicTech Astronauts

The mild weather of Castel Gandolfo makes it a perfect place for year-around sports. We will have intramural sports teams, like soccer, basketball, and tennis, for our students to be able to compete against each other as well as other teams from the United States and Europe. Additionally our grounds have many trails that are great for running, two swimming pools, and a gym for students to use at their leisure.

Clubs and Activities

Students will have the opportunity to participate in several clubs, including a gardening club, a movie club, a video game club, and more; additionally we have a student-run school choir that sings for Sunday Liturgies. Students are also encouraged to start their own student life initiatives with help from the Institute's faculty and staff. 

Student Travel Opportunities

They also have the opportunity to travel throughout Italy and Europe during their time at CatholicTech. At least once a term, our students organize a school-sponsored trip for all students to attend. Our students have traveled to several places throughout Italy, including Venice, Florence, the Amalfi Coast, and more. We also organize pilgrimage trips, including Assisi for the Feast of St. Francis and attend Holy Week services in Rome.
