Great Books Program (for high school or college credit)		9th and up	This is the our renowned, 4-year Great Books program for grades 9-12. In it students follow in the footsteps of students in the classical age of ancient Greece and Rome, reading the greatest works to that time, added to over the subsequent centuries with later great books, right up to our time. The readings begin with the Iliad and Odyssey by the ancient Greek poet Homer, the “Father of Western civilization,” and other ancient Greek classics, followed the next year by the greatest classics of ancient Rome, then of the Middle Ages, followed the 4th year by the greatest literary masterpieces of the Modern period. The students meet online each week for a two-hour, Socratic discussion (not lectures) of the weekly reading, guided by two moderators. Students submit two essays and take an oral exam each semester. Over the four-year program students read over 100 Great Books and discuss them in 240 hours of lively, Socratic discussions.
COLLEGE CREDIT TRACK PROGRAMS	College Credits		The following programs have been reviewed and recommended by the American Council for Education for 6 college credits per semester, 48 total for the 4-year Great Books program; and 3 credits for each of the four Theology Online courses. 60 credits in total. Several colleges and universities have formally agreed to accept these credits, and have done so for many years, as have many others without formal agreements.
Theology Online Course	3 credits per course	11th and up	These four theology courses were prepared for the Angelicum Academy by Fr. Joseph Fessio, Th.D., the founder of Ignatius Press and a former student of Pope Benedict XVI. Each asynchronous course is for three credits, and include 24 recorded lectures each (95 in total) by Fr. Fessio. Students read two or three theology works (eg. by Chesterton, C.S.
