Holy Trinity Seminary

:"Not to be confused with Holy Trinity Orthodox Seminary in Jordanville, New York or Holy Trinity College and Seminary in New Port Richey, Florida."

Holy Trinity Seminary is a Roman Catholic seminary residence in Irving, Texas in the Diocese of Dallas, Texas that is located within the University of Dallas campus. University of Dallas is an independent Catholic University with strong ties to the Diocese of Dallas. As a non-degree-granting academic residence, Holy Trinity Seminary is not separately accredited by any accrediting organization, but is approved by the Diocese of Dallas and the Vatican for the formation of priest candidates prior to receiving the Sacrament of Holy Orders.

Academics

Before being ordained as a priest, seminarians who reside at Holy Trinity Seminary must graduate from University of Dallas with a degree in Philosophy and Letters that is specifically designed for seminarians and their later priestly duties in managing a parish and attending to the spiritual needs of parishioners. Holy Trinity Seminary does not itself grant degrees, but rather serves as a residence for seminarians as they take classes at the neighboring academic campus of University of Dallas.

In addition to their classroom studies at University of Dallas, seminarians preparing for the priesthood at University of Dallas are assigned house jobs and a weekly, communal work order so they learn to think of the seminary as their house and to accept responsibility for its maintenance.
