Academic Programs
The Order of Saint-Sulpice focuses on training priests through its seminaries. To that end, the Theological College provides priestly formation through three separate academic programs: a two-year certified pre-theology program; a theology program; and the Basselin scholars program for undergraduate-level seminarians. The latter program, named in honor of Theodore B. Basselin, is administered by the Catholic University school of philosophy.
The seminary educates and forms seminarians from the following dioceses: Arlington, Baltimore, Beaumont, Camden, Chifeng (China), Fort Worth, Hartford, Helena, Iaşi (Romania), Jefferson City, Lafayette, Little Rock, Louisville, Lubbock, Madison, Nanterre (France), New York, Pittsburgh, Portland, Rapid City, Richmond, Rochester, Rockville Centre, San Francisco, Savannah, Seattle, Spokane, Syracuse, Washington, Wheeling-Charleston, Worcester, and Xi'an (China).

Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or programs:
“You know lots of criticism is written by characters who are very academic and think it is a sign you are worthless if you make jokes or kid or even clown. I wouldn’t kid Our Lord if he was on the cross. But I would attempt a joke with him if I ran into him chasing the money changers out of the temple.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“Although good early childhood programs can benefit all children, they are not a quick fix for all of society’s ills—from crime in the streets to adolescent pregnancy, from school failure to unemployment. We must emphasize that good quality early childhood programs can help change the social and educational outcomes for many children, but they are not a panacea; they cannot ameliorate the effects of all harmful social and psychological environments.”
—Barbara Bowman (20th century)
