   APPLICATION INFORMATION                   

 

What happens if one decides to apply to the seminary?

 

The first step is to contact the Director of Vocations. He will give you all the necessary materials and will guide you through the process.

 

The written application consists of gathering information and answering questions. You will be asked to obtain letters of recommendation and to provide academic and sacramental records.

 

You will then meet with the Commission for Orders and Ministries. This body of priests assists the Director of Vocations in deciding whether or not to recommend you to the Bishop.

 

If the Bishop accepts you as a seminarian, the Director of Vocation will then forward your information to the Seminary Admissions Board. Your acceptance is final upon acceptance to the seminary.
