My SJS Welcome Page

Welcome to St. Joseph's Seminary & College Online Portal.

New Applicants who are wanting to pursue an MA in Theology, MA in Catholic Philosophical Studies, Graduate / Post-Master's Certificate in Sacred Scripture, or Graduate / Post-Master's Certificate in Dogmatic Theology will apply through the Online Application for Non-Seminarians. Once the application is submitted online, it is reviewed and kept in an applicant status until all required documents are received by the Academic Office. Transcripts, Statement of Purpose, and Recommendation Letters are required from all applicants. The Proof of Immunization Form in Additional Documents tab is required from all applicants born after January 1957, who are taking two or more classes per semester. New York State requires all schools of higher education to maintain proof of immunization in student records. There is a $50.00 application fee for all first-time students. Returning students applying for a new program are exempt from paying an application fee.

Candidates for the Permanent Diaconate who are new to St. Joseph's Seminary MA Program will apply online through the Online Application portal. Because each diocese requires Letters of Intent or a Statement of Purpose and recommendation letters, candidates for the permanent diaconate are exempt from submitting those documents to St. Joseph's Seminary; however, official transcripts and proof of immunization (if born after January 1957) are required and must be submitted to the Academic Office.  Candidates of the Permanent Diaconate are exempt from the $50.00 application fee. Please contact your diaconate office for the waiver code.

First Year Seminarians and First Year CFR's will register in the SJS system using the First Year Seminarian Registration Form. Once in the Student Information System, seminarians and CFR's will be able to access NetClassroom with the user name and password created for the online registration form and enroll in classes.

Current students who plan to audit a class must complete the online Auditor Registration Form each semester. Doing so creates a flag for the bursar to charge the auditor fee. If an auditor's form is not submitted, the student will be charged full tution. After submitting the online Auditor's Registration Form, the student will go into NetClassroom to enroll in classes.

The user ID and password that you create for a new account and to open the online application will access your application in MySJS. Once you submit your application and are accepted into the MA program, you will need to reset your password for security purposes so that you can access your NetClassroom account. NetClassroom provides access to your class schedule, to enroll in classes,check grades, transcript, degree audit, and to manage tuition payment.

If you have trouble accessing the forms or accessing NetClassroom, please call (914) 367-8281 or email cynthia.harrison@archny.org for assistance.
