Welcome

Saint Ursula Academy is a Catholic, college-preparatory, secondary school for young women. Ranked as one of the best high schools in the region, Saint Ursula Academy carries a distinguished tradition of academic excellence, innovation, and service. Saint Ursula educates the whole person and prepares young women for leadership in a global society. The Ursuline Sisters of Cincinnati opened the Academy in 1910 in the spirit of Saint Angela Merici. 
 
Talented administrators, faculty, and staff are dedicated to the school's mission of promoting academic excellence and fostering a welcoming, respectful, and diverse community. Students thrive and gain power from the authentic sisterhood within the school community. Saint Ursula graduates are women filled with faith, integrity, and courage, ready to make a positive impact in the world.

Saint Ursula Academy offers a challenging four-year program in the fields of English, mathematics, science, social studies, French, Spanish, Latin, and religion. Saint Ursula also offers four-year programs in Art, Design, Music, and Theatre. There is a rich selection of electives, many exclusive to SUA, and many experiential learning opportunities thanks to partnerships with area universities, organizations, and businesses. A high school placement test is required of all prospective freshmen students. A limited number of academic scholarships are based on the results of this test. In line with our mission, financial aid is available to students who qualify. 
 
The Academy also offers a program for college-bound, highly motivated young women of above-average ability who have dyslexia or other learning challenges. Students with diagnosed learning disabilities are completely mainstreamed within the college-preparatory curriculum through the Educational Services Program, which began in 1982 at Saint Ursula.
 
A Saint Ursula education offers much more than strong academics. It intertwines moral values and standards of excellence, and exercises in Christian leadership and service in family, Church, and society. The community honors the power of authentic sisterhood and works to develop the strength of faith-filled women. Saint Ursula Academy seeks cultural and socio-economic diversity by drawing students from the entire Cincinnati area to its beautiful campus centrally located in East Walnut Hills.
