Five classifications of candidates are presently being accepted for admission to Christ the Saviour Seminary:

1. Students who have graduated from a recognized college or university with a baccalaureate degree may be admitted to pursue the Bachelor of Theology degree, a three year program.

2. Applicants who have not yet graduated with a Bachelor's degree will be admitted to the Seminary and will be enrolled at the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown in a co- operative program which will enable him to receive the Bachelor's degree while at the seminary. Following this, the seminarian will then be admitted to the three year seminary theology program.

3. Late vocations who have earned no previous undergraduate degree may be admitted to the theology program and would receive a Licentiate of Theology diploma upon completion of their theological studies.

4. Applicants who have no intention of being ordained to the Orthodox ministry may also be admitted to the B.Th. program, or to take individual courses. Because the primary mission of the Seminary is geared toward the Orthodox priesthood, all applicants will be admitted only on an individual basis, after review by the Seminary board.

5. A secondary program of studies is the Diocesan Diaconate Program which is available to Orthodox men who wish to be of service as deacons. The Diaconate Program involves three years of study, two semesters each year, with one three-credit course offered each semester.
