Four-Year Study on Ut Fidem at Dowling Catholic High School
Category One Consulting (C1C), a research arm of PEW Research, performed a four year study on Dowling Catholic Ut Fidem graduates. See results below...
Mass Attendance
Ut Fidem students attended Mass more frequently and stayed more consistent over time. Ut Fidem students were 59% more likely to attend Mass 4+ times a month.
Faith Behaviors
Ut Fidem students participated in a greater number of other faith behaviors than other students, with the greatest difference seen in Eucharistic Adoration and faith journaling, but also volunteering, reconciliation, daily Mass, and the rosary.
Religious Status
Ut Fidem students were more likely to be active Catholics (77%). Religious status tended to stay stable over time.
Key Takeaway
Ut Fidem students keep their faith. They were more likely to be committed to their faith, engaged in faith behaviors, and show more faith impact.
