School Description

Provided by Sacred Heart Major Seminary

Sacred Heart Major Seminary is an institution of higher education that primarily prepares candidates for the Roman Catholic Priesthood and, further,
prepares individuals for the diaconate, lay ministry and other leadership roles.

Sacred Heart Major Seminary seeks to provide an excellent undergraduate formation based on an emphasis in Philosophy and ministry that will serve
as a sound foundation to pursue theological studies. The graduate Theology programs seek to ensure a clearly Catholic professional and academic formation for ministerial service.

For eight decades, thousands of Sacred Heart graduates have been ordained for priestly ministry, with hearts patterned after the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Good Shepherd. They have been sent out into the vineyard of the Archdiocese of Detroit, and in the fertile fields of dioceses and archdioceses throughout the country. Throughout the world, Sacred Heart graduates have served, or are currently serving, the people of God in the nations of Poland, Western Samoa, Cameroon, Brazil and China.

The campus itself offers outdoor aerobic walking or running areas, gymnasium, and handball/racquetball courts.
