Great school! My daughter loves the Catholic, all-girls environment, and the way they are preparing her for college and beyond. I highly recommend UA to grade school girls.

Fantastic school. Not every student will be prepared to go to Ursuline. It is fast paced and a little higher pressure than the public schools. If your kid doesn't care for school they will hate Ursuline, as Ursuline follows through. Lots of extracurricular activities and fantastic sports programs, some of which are nationally ranked. If your kid wants to go to college, any college, then Ursuline will get her ready, and she will make a ton of friends in the process.

I can't imagine a better high school and loved my time at Ursuline. Students are given a lot of independence and the unique schedule allowed most students to thrive and really prepares students with time management skills for college and beyond. Even today (several years out of college), my Ursuline friends are my closest friends. The staff is supportive of students and encourages critical thinking. Creativity is celebrated. I still remember some of the discussions held in junior and senior year classes because they were so thought-provoking and insightful. Overall, a wonderful, encouraging environment.

As a parent I was not impressed by the academics and all around education my daughter received at Ursuline Academy. Our younger daughter went to a different all girls catholic high school in the area and we had a mych better expierence. Our younger daughter was pushed harder and learned in a more inviting environment. She was able to step out of her comfort zone and take on leadership positions which our older daughter was never even offered. I did not find UA to be a good fit for my family

The BEST four years that I could have imagined in high school were spent at Ursuline! I felt loved and supported every day. My preparation for college was outstanding. Ursuline is the BEST!

Extremely controlling, over the top with unnecessary discipline and singles out students that speak up for themselves. Great place if you want to get into a good college but not ivy. The faculty squashes individualism and nitpicks at everything. The girls that weren't smart enough to leave are either so awesome they can endure terrible situations with a smile or have no personality whatsoever. The upside is Kairos,senior year, which allows everyone to forgive any prior issues they had with the institution.

One of the best schools there is. Great academics, great sports, and a very caring environment. Produces confident, intelligent young women. As a graduate, I could not ask for a better high school experience.
