St Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary

St Vladimir's Seminary (SVOTS) is a community of Orthodox Christians studying, praying and living together as we prepare for service to Christ and His Church. Throughout our more than 80-year history, we’ve always emphasized academic excellence, and the need for a solid, spiritual foundation that enlightens academic knowledge with the Wisdom of the Spirit.

Our 12-acre Crestwood campus is just a thirty-minute train ride away from Grand Central Station, right at the heart of New York City’s rich cultural and educational resources. Our on-campus apartments offer housing options for singles, married students, and those with families. Our student body is made up of seminarians from many Orthodox Christian jurisdictions; male and female, Orthodox Christian and Oriental Orthodox. We are accredited by the ATS, and offer ThM, MDiv, and MA degrees.
