About This School

Saint Joseph Seminary College is a private nonprofit institution located in St. Benedict, Louisiana with approximately 91 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $39,513 per year. The graduation rate is 40%.

The numbers tell a mixed story here — the 88% freshman retention rate suggests students who enroll tend to feel at home in this small, faith-centered seminary environment, but the 40% graduation rate is a real concern and worth pressing the school to explain. At just 91 students, this is an extremely intimate setting suited specifically for men discerning a vocation to the Catholic priesthood, not a general undergraduate experience. Worth considering only if that specific formation mission aligns with your path, but the $39,513 average net price is steep given the graduation outcomes.
