INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

International students are considered only as incoming freshmen or sophomores at the beginning of the school year.

The Catholic Schools Office with the Diocese of Fort Worth is restructuring the international program and policies regarding the acceptance of International Students with third party organizations. Until then, Nolan Catholic is unable to accept students using a third party organization.
