Visiting St Vladimir's Seminary as a Prospective Student

Note: this information is for visiting the campus with interest in applying for a degree program. For general information about visiting the campus, please click here. For information about coming as a Visiting Scholar, please visit the page on Visiting Scholars.

Visiting the campus of St. Vladimir’s Seminary provides the best way to experience seminary life.

Prospective students may arrange a visit by contacting visitors@svots.edu.  Overnight stays can be arranged with on-campus accommodations and food provided, given availability. If you are visiting as a prospective student, there are no fees for housing or food during these visits.

Visits should be arranged while classes are in session so that prospective students can gain a feel for life at the Seminary—spiritually, academically, and socially. Please consult the Academic Calendar for the academic schedule.

For active applicants, the admissions interview may be combined with a campus visit, during which applicants have an opportunity to attend classes, worship in the chapel, and talk with current students and faculty members. If an in-person visit cannot be scheduled, interviews are conducted online, as part of the admissions process.

Applicants to the Doctor of Ministry Program are welcome to visit the campus. If an on-campus visit is not convenient, however, arrangements can be made to conduct interviews via phone or Zoom.
