Catholic colleges were not exactly trainblazers during the early days of the online learning revolution. But now some of them are starting to catch up, by offering a select group of online degree programs. The schools, most of which are quite old and enjoy at least a bit of a national reputation, aren't cheap, but they're a whole lot more reasonable than most private schools.
Catholic colleges generally make a point of keeping a strong focus on ethics and on helping others in all their programs. This message is maintained in online programs by the inclusion of certain courses in all curricula. But in truth, the Catholic message is probably a bit less strongly delivered to online students than to those on-campus. In any case, Catholic schools have always been quite welcoming to non-Catholic students. It's worth taking a look at some of the Catholic online colleges and universities here in North America.

Here's an up to date list of some of the specialized criminal justice degrees you can get online.
