St. Vladimir’s Seminary to host open house for prospective students
Saint Vladimir’s Seminary here will host an open house for prospective students November 10-12, 2010.
The open house will provide those contemplating ministry or a deeper study of the Orthodox faith with first-hand experience of seminary life. Participants will attend classes, worship in the chapel, tour the campus and its resources, and meet faculty members and seminarians.
Detailed information on the seminary’s various degree programs, financial aid, and admission process also will be provided.
A special feature of this year’s open house will be the extraordinary opportunity for participants to venerate the relics of the seminary’s patron saint, the Holy Great Prince Vladimir, on November 12th, with the seminary community prior to public veneration the following two days. In addition, prospective students will enjoy sharing the seminary’s annual Pre-Thanksgiving Day meal.
There is no cost to participants, other than personal travel costs to and from the seminary campus. Prospective students may explore transportation options on the seminary web site at www.svots.edu.
