Marian University Preparatory School (MU Prep) is expanding its enrollment options to include students in grades K-12 across all 50 states. Operating as an independent Catholic school under the Archdiocese of Indianapolis, MU Prep aims to provide a high-quality education that prepares students for college or career paths post-high school. Joseph Heidt has been appointed as MU Prep’s Executive Director and will oversee this phase of enrollment growth. Heidt brings over two decades of experience in strategic leadership at both K-12 and university levels.

“In Indiana alone, the state’s unemployment rate hovers just below 4 percent,” Heidt said. “This demonstrates the need for skilled individuals who are ready to have an immediate leadership impact when they enter the workforce, training, or college. No matter the path after high school, MU Prep sets students up for success in college, their career, and life. Our online Catholic education gives students the flexibility to receive a great values-based education where they connect with faculty and staff who provide intentional mentorship and support to enable their success as future transformational leaders for our world.”

Founded by Marian University, MU Prep offers students access to various university resources and unique opportunities, including dual enrollment in college classes and dual credit courses that allow them to earn college credit while still in high school.

Indiana students in grades 6-12 will also have access to in-person opportunities such as apprenticeships, workforce certifications, field trips, and on-campus activities.

“Marian University continues to be a leader in providing an education that prepares students for a good life and serve as transformational leaders,” said Kenith Britt, Ph.D., chief operating officer and chancellor of Marian University. “Through MU Prep, students across the country can now access a strong Catholic education grounded in our Franciscan values: dignity of the individual, peace and justice, reconciliation, and responsible stewardship.”

Marian University Preparatory School is committed to making high-quality Catholic education accessible regardless of financial circumstances or ZIP code. The Indiana Choice Scholarship allows eligible students to qualify for financial aid covering up to 100 percent of tuition.

Enrollment for the 2024-25 school year is now open. Families can learn more about Marian University Preparatory School and enroll today at www.muprep.k12.com.
