History
In 1955, the philosophy program was moved elsewhere, and the seminary was dedicated to theological preparation for men preparing for priesthood.
In 1968, construction of the existing building was completed across the street from the original school, and in 1972 the name was changed to Sacred Heart School of Theology. In 1973 Sacred Heart received approval to accept second-career presbyterial candidates who are sponsored by dioceses or religious congregations. The candidates come from across the United States and Canada. The seminary offers a Master of Divinity to men who are in a program of priestly formation and a Master of Arts for men and women seeking theological training in a Christian tradition.
