The College Seminary of the Immaculate Conception at Saint Andrew’s Hall exists to provide students who experience a desire to be priests with an environment conducive to discerning the Lord’s will for their lives. This is done through a program of human, spiritual, intellectual, and apostolic formation.
Jesus Christ is the center of life at Saint Andrew’s Hall. Through the power of His Spirit, College Seminary students are formed in the likeness of Him whom they serve. The Seminary community life offers encouragement and fraternal support in living the Christian life. The University setting allows for the development of a strong foundation in the liberal arts, philosophy, and theology, which are essential to a well-rounded person.
Designed to prepare students for the diocesan priesthood, the College Seminary functions under its own rector, vice rector, and spiritual director. The program of formation is guided by the 1992 apostolic exhortation of Pope John Paul II, (Pastores Dabo Vobis), and by other documents of the Holy See and United States Catholic Conference of Catholic Bishops, most notably the Fifth Edition of the Program of Priestly Formation (USCCB, 2006).
The College Seminary is affiliated with the Seminary Department of the National Catholic Education Association and with the National Association of College Seminaries. It operates under the auspices of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Newark but accepts students for the priesthood sponsored by other dioceses and religious orders as well. Students wishing to study for the priesthood of the Archdiocese of Newark at the college level are strongly encouraged to attend the College Seminary.
Students must be accepted for admission to the University before they can be enrolled in the College Seminary. College Seminary students board at Saint Andrew’s Hall, a few blocks from the main University campus in South Orange. Saint Andrew’s provides a community setting where students and priests live and work closely together in an atmosphere of friendship, study, and prayer. All college seminarians are expected to major in Catholic Theology through the University’s School of Theology. Please see the Immaculate Conception Seminary School of Theology section of this catalogue.

Every entering student wants to succeed. Success is measured in many ways, but at Seton Hall University we envision a type of success where individuals are at their best socially and academically. The University aims to instill in its students a vision that involves forming students to be servant leaders in a global society.
The Center for Academic Success (formerly Freshman Studies), celebrated its 34th year in 2021 and is an award-winning academic advising program designed to initiate students into college-level success. The particular objectives of this crucial first-year experience are:
The Center for Academic Success uses three elements to accomplish these objectives: the First-year Advisor, the Peer Advisor, and the University Life course.
During the University’s New Student Orientation, students meet the advisors in the Center for Academic Success. The advisors are highly trained professionals whose primary responsibility is to provide a constant resource person throughout a student’s first year at Seton Hall University.
First-year advisors teach the University Life Course that all first-year students take in order to ensure regular academic contact. Advisors help students take advantage of the many resources available at Seton Hall, including Academic Resource Center, The Career Center, Health/Counseling Services, Campus Ministry, and many other resources campus-wide. Advisors also ensure that students are connected to their chosen academic departments and that the particular academic experience within each major happens according to plan. Students who are “undecided” as to their major when they enter Seton Hall are provided additional resources to assist in clarifying career and professional goals. All students are encouraged, through formal programming and informal meetings, to connect to an academic department as soon as they feel comfortable. Every effort is made to place students into a major by the end of their first year.
The primary goal of the first-year advisors is to assist students in making choices regarding an academic program, while simultaneously integrating students into the life and community of the University.
Each first-year student is assigned a specially selected and trained peer advisor. The peer advisor, a successful undergraduate student representing the various schools and colleges in the University, works in tandem with first-year advisors to provide “firsthand” insight to the student. It is vital that new students connect to the existing student body. Peer advisors provide an immediate resource in accomplishing this objective. Peer advisors serve as student leaders who work to ensure personal support and assistance to our incoming students.
Each first-year student is enrolled in a 1-credit academic course required for graduation that meets during the first semester. This University Life Course, taught by the advisor with assistance from the peer advisor, meets once a week for 50 minutes. The objectives are:
The major programs in the University have common requirements for beginning students. This core curriculum, in combination with a declared interest or major, makes up the courses of the first term. Most entering students take five classes and the University Life Course. Because most courses meet three times a week for 50 minutes or twice a week for 75 minutes and the University Life Course meets once a week for 50 minutes, the majority of Seton Hall students have a course load of 16 credits. Students who are admitted on a probationary basis, or who have other time constraints to consider, will take a course load of approximately four courses or 12 credits.

The Department of Military Science contributes to Seton Hall University’s mission of developing and educating global, adaptable, strategic thinking, and flexible servant leaders of tomorrow by administering the Army Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) Program. Through the ROTC Program’s coursework and practical experience, students will develop decision-making, team-building, and time-management skills—leadership qualities that are essential to success in any field and are highly valued in the private sector. The program provides an opportunity to examine service in the Army while earning a baccalaureate degree. A student who completes the program may earn a commission in the Regular Army, Army Reserve, or National Guard. Students may participate in the first two years of Army ROTC with no commitment to military service. Completing the program guarantees a student a job upon graduation serving in career fields such as the Nurse Corps, Aviation, Engineer, Infantry, Military Intelligence, and Signal Corps to name a few. Students may choose to major in any academic discipline as long as it leads toward a baccalaureate or graduate degree.
Students attending one of the 23 affiliated universities in the northern New Jersey area may cross-enroll, participate and complete the ROTC program through Seton Hall University. Classes are held on the campus of Seton Hall University. Cross-enrolled students may take ROTC courses for credit or no credit. However, in order to transfer credits from Seton Hall to their respective academic colleges, students must pay for the credits at Seton Hall.
The Army ROTC program is divided into two parts, the Basic Course and the Advanced Course.
The basic course consists of the first two years of the program, typically completed in the freshman and sophomore years. The first year focuses on the Army profession, basic leadership, and officership. The second year concentrates on the experiential examination of managing, decision-making, and group dynamics. Students are placed in a wide variety of group exercises designed to emphasize various professional leadership competencies and insights. These events are held both inside the classroom and in outdoor settings. The instructor, acting as a facilitator, helps guide student processing, or after-action reviews of the events to derive the leadership, group dynamics, and problem-solving lessons that the exercises offer. Practical “life skills” are emphasized throughout the two years. By the end of the Basic Course, students should possess a basic understanding of the unique aspects of leading, individual physical fitness, and a healthy lifestyle. The lessons are designed to explore leadership principles and theories, inspire intellectual curiosity, and stimulate self-study. Upon completion of the course, students are eligible to enter the advanced course.
The basic course imposes no military obligation on the part of students. Basic course requirements also can be fulfilled through attendance at ROTC Leadership Training Course or LTC (a twenty-eight-day training course held each Summer) or by having prior military service. LTC can count as an internship awarding a student with credits applicable toward a degree with prior approval by the student’s academic adviser. Basic course requirements also can be waived, on a case-by-case basis, by the Professor of Military Science for students who participated in a Junior ROTC High School Program.
The advanced course is for students in their junior and senior years, or with four semesters of graduate school remaining. Coursework includes military history and ethics, leadership development, tactics and national security issues and concerns. The advanced course also includes a requirement to attend a five-week Leadership Development Assessment Course (LDAC), held during the Summer between the junior and senior years, in which the student is further trained and evaluated for leadership potential. While at LDAC, students receive pay, travel expenses and benefits. LDAC can count as an internship awarding a student with credits applicable toward a degree with prior approval by the student’s academic adviser.
In keeping with the military’s demanding challenges, physical fitness is an important part of the ROTC experience. All Cadets participate in supervised physical training designed to gradually bring individuals to a high level of health and fitness.
Graduate or undergraduate students can complete the ROTC requirements through a four-year, three-year, or two-year program. The four-year and three-year programs involve basic and advanced courses; the two-year program involves only advanced courses. The core coursework includes 16 to 26 credits in topics such as the art and science of leadership, ethics, values, integrity, honor, problem-solving skills, military history, physical training, and adventure training. Depending on the student’s degree program, a maximum of 26 credits in ROTC courses may be applied to the bachelor’s degree, with the approval of the student’s academic adviser.
The four-year program is divided into two parts, the basic course and the advanced course. The basic course is typically completed in the first two years of college. Unless a student has accepted a scholarship, the basic course is voluntary and all students are eligible. After completing the basic course, students who meet the physical and academic standards, and have demonstrated leadership potential, contract into the advanced course. The advanced course includes four consecutive semesters of coursework and completion of the Leader Development Assessment Course (LDAC). LDAC is a paid six-week leadership course conducted at Fort Lewis, Washington. Typically, students attend LDAC during the Summer after the first year of the advanced course.
The three-year program is designed for students who want to start ROTC as sophomores or graduate students with six semesters remaining required to complete their degree. Students complete the basic course in one year instead of two then complete the advanced course in due course. This method is referred to as compression. Students completing the basic course as compression students go on to contract in the advanced course.
The two-year program enables eligible students to contract in the advanced course at the time they are academic juniors or seniors, or graduate students with four semesters remaining before graduation. Eligible students are those with one or more of the following:
Students who are members of the National Guard or Army Reserve can participate in the Simultaneous Membership Program (SMP), which provides additional income and the opportunity to serve in a leadership position in the student’s unit of choice.
Students eligible for the two-year program may complete the requirements for their commission in two years. Students in the two-year program are fully eligible for financial assistance and may apply for an Army scholarship.
The ROTC Program offers the best leadership course to college students with or without military experience.
The program allows students to gain the confidence to lead and manage while improving self-discipline, physical fitness, and mental and physical endurance. Learning how to lead effectively and efficiently is a marketable asset.
A wide variety of scholarships are available and applications can be made at any time during the year. Scholarships range from two to four years in duration with extensions possible for highly demanding majors, such as nursing or engineering. Scholarships provide full coverage of either the tuition and mandatory fees or room and board. Scholarship recipients choose to apply their scholarships toward tuition or room/board (not both). It also includes $1200 per year for books and fees. Two-year scholarships are available for members of the National Guard and Army Reserve. These scholarships feature continued reserve duty after commissioning and guaranteed branching in the student’s unit. Scholarships for two to four years are also available and include duty in the Active Army after commissioning.
Students who accept an Army Nurse Scholarship and are pursuing a Nursing degree through Seton Hall University can receive a room and board incentive. Seton Hall University provides this incentive to qualified Army Nurse Scholarship students who are in good standing with the ROTC Program and Nursing Program.
Upon commissioning, students have a full-time job in the Active Army or a part-time job in the National Guard or Army Reserve. The military obligation of service is eight years after commissioning (four years Active Army or eight years in the National Guard or Army Reserve). The type of obligation is determined at the time of contracting in the advanced course and based on the type of scholarships a student selects. Students are selected for a specific branch depending on factors such as their interest, academic achievement, Leader Development Assessment Course (LDAC) performance rating, and the needs of the Army.
All contracted students receive a monthly stipend:
Contracted students receive a stipend for ten months of the year. Contracted students on scholarships also receive $600 per semester for books in addition to getting full tuition & fees paid. Students with prior service, SMP Cadets, and members of the National Guard or Army Reserve may be eligible for the Montgomery GI Bill (MGIB) benefits, financial assistance or reimbursement for tuition, and an additional monthly incentive.

Explores the dimensions of creative and innovative tactical leadership strategies and styles by examining team dynamics and two historical leadership theories that form the basis of much of modern leadership frameworks (trait and behavior theories). Students practice aspects of personal motivation and team building in the context of planning, executing, and assessing team exercises and participating in leadership labs. Students study historical leaders from a variety of backgrounds: from Lincoln, Grant, and Lee to Gandhi, Kennedy, and Mother Theresa.
Examines the challenges of leading teams in complex contemporary operating environments. Instructors highlight course of action development, analysis, the execution of orders, and the achievement of mission success. Students develop greater self awareness as they assess their own leadership styles and practice communication and team building skills while studying the theoretical basis of situational and contingent leadership. Students analyze recent and historical military case studies to gain insight into the importance and practice of teamwork and techniques in real-world scenarios. Parallels are drawn to the competitive and cross-cultural environments of most modern corporations.
Challenges students to study, practice, and evaluate adaptive leadership skills as they are presented with complex scenarios related to the contemporary operating environment and across the full spectrum of military, corporate, and civic operations. Instructors and fellow students give students systematic and specific feedback on their leadership attributes and actions as they are applied in a variety of situations. Self-evaluations also allow students to develop their leadership skills and critical thinking abilities.
Presents increasingly intense situational leadership challenges to build student awareness and skills in leading small teams of people. Students explore, evaluate, and develop skills in decision-making, persuading, and motivating team members across a full spectrum of military, corporate, and civic operations. Apply principles and techniques of effective written and oral communication. Instructors review aspects of military operations as a means of preparing students for the ROTC Leader Development and Assessment Course (LDAC).
Strengthens student proficiency in planning, executing, and assessing complex operations while functioning as a member of a staff and providing performance feedback to subordinates. Students assess risk, make ethical and moral decisions, identify responsibilities of key staff members, coordinate staff roles, and use situational opportunities to lead, teach, train, and develop junior ROTC Cadets. Apply leadership and problem solving principles to a complex case study and simulation. Lessons on military and civil justice and personnel processes prepare students to make the transition to their initial leadership assignments.
Explores the dynamics of leading in the complicated situations of current operations in the contemporary operating environment (COE) of the global village. Students examine differences in customs and courtesies, culture, military law, principles of war, and rules of engagement in the face of international terrorism. They also explore aspects of interacting with non-government organizations, engaging in civil duties, and host nation support. Instructors place significant emphasis on preparing Cadets for their first unit of assignment. Case studies, scenarios, and exercises prepare Cadets to face the complex ethical and practical demands of leading organizations of varied sizes to succeed in a global and complex world.
Leadership Laboratory is designed to provide students the environment and scenarios to lead organizations of varied sizes (from team to company size). It offers the opportunity to apply leadership and management principles, theories, and techniques explored in the formal classroom military science courses. By design, the Leadership Labs are progressive and sequential, where students are placed in increasing complex scenarios. This is a 2-hour session.

Explores the dimensions of creative and innovative tactical leadership strategies and styles by examining team dynamics and two historical leadership theories that form the basis of much of modern leadership frameworks (trait and behavior theories). Students practice aspects of personal motivation and team building in the context of planning, executing, and assessing team exercises and participating in leadership labs. Students study historical leaders from a variety of backgrounds: from Lincoln, Grant, and Lee to Gandhi, Kennedy, and Mother Theresa.
Examines the challenges of leading teams in complex contemporary operating environments. Instructors highlight course of action development, analysis, the execution of orders, and the achievement of mission success. Students develop greater self awareness as they assess their own leadership styles and practice communication and team building skills while studying the theoretical basis of situational and contingent leadership. Students analyze recent and historical military case studies to gain insight into the importance and practice of teamwork and techniques in real-world scenarios. Parallels are drawn to the competitive and cross-cultural environments of most modern corporations.
Challenges students to study, practice, and evaluate adaptive leadership skills as they are presented with complex scenarios related to the contemporary operating environment and across the full spectrum of military, corporate, and civic operations. Instructors and fellow students give students systematic and specific feedback on their leadership attributes and actions as they are applied in a variety of situations. Self-evaluations also allow students to develop their leadership skills and critical thinking abilities.
