Thomas Aquinas College offers a classical Catholic liberal education. The College's program consists of an integrated and orderly study of the liberal arts and sciences, beginning with the fundamental arts of the trivium and quadrivium, proceeding through the natural and political sciences, and culminating in theology.

The College achieves its mission chiefly through reflective consideration of seminal questions raised in classical texts. These texts often referred to as the Great Books are selected by the faculty under the guidance of the Catholic tradition. In accordance with this tradition, the works of St. Thomas Aquinas occupy a preeminent position in the Colleges curriculum. Thomas Aquinas offers a one-degree program: Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts.
