Register publications include the National Catholic Register bi-weekly newspaper, NCRegister.Com website, and the Register Daily & Weekly email news updates.


The National Catholic Register is published biweekly, 26 issues per year. Our print subscribers are mature, well-educated, and have the expendable income to make your advertising dollars count. The majority of our subscribers regularly buy goods and services by phone, mail, and the web, and travel frequently for enjoyment. The average age of our print subscriber is 55, and roughly 50% male/female. Half of our subscribers have grandchildren. 1/3 have children in the home with 63% attending Catholic or home schools.

National Catholic Register Catholic Identity College Guide

Published annually in September, the National Catholic Register's College Guide is the Catholic student's resource for finding a quality Catholic education that is faithful to the Magisterium of the Church.

The schools listed in the guide have gone on record in answer to our questionnaire, based on Pope John Paul II’s 1990 apostolic constitution on higher education, Ex Corde Ecclesiae (From the Heart of the Church), its 2000 Application to the United States, canon law, and other Church documents.

Inclusion in the College Guide is free, and open to all Catholic colleges and universities able to complete our application and questionnaire.

Acceptance in the College Guide also qualifies you for a listing in NCRegister's online College Guide.

View our 2023 College Guide, published in our September 10, 2023 issue.
