Holy Apostles College and Seminary is a Catholic seminary in Cromwell, Connecticut. It was founded in 1956 on a Шаблон:Convert property in Cromwell by Eusebe M. Menard to provide a program of education and formation for men intending to enter the priesthood.

History

Holy Apostles began as a college level, preparatory seminary, which Franciscan Eusebe Menard entrusted to the Missionaries of the Holy Apostles. In 1972, Holy Apostles, in view of declining enrollment,[1] began admitting non-seminarians, women included.[2][3] In 1977 it added a Theology programme and became a major as well as a minor seminary.

In 2012, recognizing the growing need for online undergraduate programs, Holy Apostles added undergraduate-level programs. In 2014, the State of Connecticut Office of Higher Education approved the college for a 100% online undergraduate program (both in the Associate of Arts and the Bachelor of Arts degree programs).[4] The following year, the institution lowered its tuition 28% to $320 per credit hour because of its mission to cultivate Catholic leaders for the purpose of evangelization.[5]

There are now 8 undergraduate programs (Associate of Arts and Bachelor of Arts)[6] as well as the Take Credit! Program for high school juniors and seniors. Graduate degrees have been available to lay students since 1982.[7]

In 2019, Peter S. Kucer became President/Rector of the college taking over from the long-serving Douglas Mosey (1996-2019).[8]

Academics

Holy Apostles is accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education[9][10] and the Connecticut Office of Higher Education.[11][10] Additionally, various master's degree programs are accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada.[12][10]

Members of its board of directors include the bishops of Connecticut with the Bishop of Norwich as chancellor.[2] The institution places heavy emphasis on the academic disciplines of philosophy and theology in the context of the Catholic honors liberal arts curriculum. Half of the undergraduate courses are a part of the required core.[13] This includes a distribution of courses in theology, philosophy, English, and history.
