Saint John Vianney College Seminary (SJV) is the largest collaborative college seminary in the United States, representing dioceses throughout the nation with approximately 100 undergraduate men in formation annually. Established in 1968, SJV nurtures the seeds of a priestly vocation, preparing young men for major seminary through integral formation and discipleship in Christian character, a traditional Catholic program of spiritual growth, and a formative liberal arts education.

More than 600 of our alumni are serving as ordained priests today. Many more serve as lay leaders in their communities and parishes, building up the Catholic Church throughout the world.

We are Men in Christ, Men of the Church, and Men for Others.
