Inform Your Faith through Academics
At Trinity Western University you can earn a degree in one of 47 academic programs while receiving a faithful Catholic formation at Catholic Pacific College, formation that cannot be rivalled anywhere in the Northwest.
TWU students have the opportunity to take the Catholic Formation Track as part of the TWU core curriculum, a formative track designed to expose students to the richness of the Catholic intellectual tradition. Because of this, CPC is one of only two Catholic post-secondary institutions in Canada listed in "The Newman Guide to Choosing a Catholic College".
CPC is a teaching institute for Trinity Western University and is located right at the entrance to the university.

Inform Your Faith through Community
CPC is not merely an academic institution. It is a place where young people come to learn, receive the Sacraments, and participate in a growing, vibrant Catholic community. There's so much happening on campus to nourish both growth in faith and fellowship. Typically there are weekly events happening. Check out our Catholic Pacific Student Life Facebook group.

We are forming students to engage our times fearlessly and faithfully
"I felt that this was something that I had been missing in my life: this Catholic education and Catholic community. I really wanted to incorporate that into my education."
Anna-Marie Ryan
CPC/TWU Alumna | Major in Music: Vocal Performance
"I did not expect the CFT to be as impactful on my education and my faith as much as it has been this last year. Each course has challenged me to think differently, to see the world through the cracks of reality that ordinary life tries to cover up."
Jeremy Joosten
Current CFT Student | Business Major
"CPC changed everything for me. It was an opportunity for me to engage in my faith on a daily basis. It truly changed me and made me into the man I am today."
Royston Grosjean
CPC Alumnus | Communications Major
"I would recommend CPC because of the faith formation it gives. It gave me a foundation for my studies that I rely heavily on now."
Scott Van Vliet
CPC Alumnus | Psychology Major
"Before being in the CFT, I found myself not knowing what I wanted to do because I didn’t know who I was and what God wanted me to dedicate my time to. The CFT is designed to have you probe the question of who you are and how to lead a meaningful life in Christ."
Lucas Smith
Current CFT Student | TWU Athletics
