If you're considering priesthood, we invite you to first have a conversation with the Office of Vocations or your local diocesan or religious vocations representative.
Permanent Diaconate
If you're thinking about the permanent diaconate, we invite you to first visit the Permanent Diaconate page on the Archdiocese of Detroit website. Next, give the Office of Admissions a call at (313) 883-8696 to learn about program options.
Lay Students
If you feel called to lay ecclesial ministry (such as pastoral associate, director of religious education, youth ministry, campus ministry, theology teacher, etc.), apply online or give the Office of Admissions a call at (313) 883-8696 to schedule your admissions interview.
Faith Enrichment
You can explore and deepen your understanding of the Catholic faith with our Certificate in Catholic Theology program! This program includes 6 introductory courses which cover all the major topics in theology, and is designed for learners at all levels. Just want to take one class or two? Ask our admissions team about your many options!
Not sure where God is calling you? That's completely normal! Like Samuel in the Old Testament, you may say "Lord, here I am!" yet need to pray and discern more before clearly hearing what God wants. We invite you to "come and see" what the Lord may have ahead for you. Take a course or two as an unclassified student, whether at the seminary or at one of our convenient parish satellite locations or online.
