2	Catholic University of America The Catholic University of America was established by the American bishops as a graduate and research center for the study of 'all branches of literature and science, both sacred and profane.' In 1887 Pope Leo XIII approved the plan to found CUA, the only national Catholic center of learning in the United States with a papal charter. The university began offering undergraduate programs in 1904.

3	George Mason University George Mason University's growing reputation as an innovative educational leader is rooted in Virginia's strong educational tradition. The university began as the Northern Virginia branch of the University of Virginia in 1957. Eager to support the fledgling institution, the Town (now City) of Fairfax purchased 150 acres in 1958 and donated it to the University of Virginia for a permanent branch campus. In March 1966, the General Assembly authorized the expansion of George Mason College into a four-year, degree-granting institution and gave it the long-range mandate to expand into a major regional university. Since 1972, the university's development has been marked by rapid growth and innovative planning. Drawing prominent scholars from all fields, George Mason's outstanding faculty includes James M. Buchanan, Nobel Laureate in economics, the Robinson Scholars, a group of outstanding scholars committed to undergraduate teaching and interdisciplinary scholarship, Pulitzer Prize winners, IEEE Centennial Medalists, and recipients of numerous grants and awards, including Fulbright, National Science Foundation, and National Endowment for the Arts awards. Endowed chairs have also brought many artists and scholars to campus. <b>Office of International Programs and Services</b> 4400 University Drive Student Union Building I, Room 310 Fairfax, Virginia 22030 Phone: (703) 993-2970 Fax: (703) 993-2966 Email: <a href="mailto:oips@gmu.edu">oips@gmu.edu</a> Web: <a href="http://www.gmu.edu/student/oips/" target="_blank">http://www.gmu.edu/student/oips/</a> <b>International Admissions</b> <a href="http://admissions.gmu.edu/global/" target="_blank">http://admissions.gmu.edu/global/</a>
