MSPS regards its service to adult students as a special part of The Catholic University of America's overall educational mission.

The school works closely with other organizations in the Washington, D.C. area and worldwide, through partnerships with such organizations as Brothers of Charity, Catholic Charities, and Providence Hospital.

MSPS includes students, faculty and staff from the greater Washington D.C. area and around the world who represent several ethnic, religious, and socio-economic backgrounds, and offers certificate, associate’s, bachelor’s and master’s level degree programs developed especially for adult students.
