How Much Does it Cost to Attend College Seminary?
The average cost of a college seminarian’s education is approximately $40,000 per
year. That includes tuition, room and board, health insurance, and books. At St.
Joseph College Seminary, the Diocese pays the room and board costs, one-third of
their college tuition, and a modest allowance for books. The seminarian and his
family are required to fund the rest of his college expenses through scholarships,
financial aid, and student loans.
