Absolutely not. You can be any religion as long as you take an entrance exam and pass, in most cases. However, you must be ok with attending Catholic Mass since mass is held at school at various times. Religion classes in my school focused on all sorts of religions in addition to Catholicism. Overall, I must say that my Catholic school education (grades K-12) was very good in the fact that it prepared me for college. I also noted that students had a higher respect for one another. There wasn't as much teasing and bullying that takes place in other schools. Good luck to you.

Most Catholic schools will accept people of any faith. The fact that you are Muslim should not pose a huge problem.

With the possible exception of seminaries, Catholic schools in the United States accept students from all faiths.
You do not have to be Catholic to attend.
With love in Christ.

Catholic schools accept students of all faiths...Muslim, Sikh, Jewish, even Atheist as long as the academic requirements are met.
The coursework requirements are the same regardless of the student's faith. If the school requires all students to take a class such as Christian Studies, then all students are required to take and pass the class regardless of their background.
Good luck and Salaam Alaikam

I don't think schools are allowed to discriminate on the basis of religion, so sure... anyone can attend a Catholic school!

...there is no reason whatsoever why a catholic school should not accept any person because of his/her religion...i believe schools are for studies and not for religion..so i think they understand this...you can try it out..
