For thirty years, CTU’s Oscar Romero Scholars has been preparing Hispanic/Latin@ men and women for professional ministry and as leaders among the Hispanic community in the Archdiocese of Chicago. The program offers them a full tuition scholarship for a graduate degree in theology and a formation program that seeks to have them inspired by the life and ministry of St. Oscar Romero. For more than half of that time, the scholars have hosted an annual event inviting family, friends, and other supporters to help raise funds for these scholarships.

This year, the Romero program has doubled the number of scholars in the program by offering for the first time in our history one of our degrees in Spanish.
