Considering CTSFW?

Visit Today

CTSFW offers many opportunities for prospective students to visit campus and discern whether residential formation is right for them. Explore Christ Academy College and our Prayerfully Consider Visit days, or plan your own visit to meet with admission and learn more about our community.

Prayerfully Consider Visits

Prayerfully Consider Visits are admission events geared toward prospective students and their loved ones, giving them an opportunity to learn more about the vocation of pastor or deaconess. Whether you’ve been considering serving Christ and His Church for a long time or only more recently, we encourage you to attend our classes, interact with our faculty, and experience our community in person. 

Prospective students are welcome to bring their families to any of our Prayerfully Consider Visits, but the summer Prayerfully Consider Visit is specifically designed with families in mind, offering separate children’s activities while parents explore seminary life. 

I gained profound insight into the program, the community, and the people. It helped clarify the decision to study at CTSFW into a crisp, spiritual choice. Previously it was a vague, complex decision with a lot of uncertainties.

Christ Academy College

Christ Academy College is a long weekend retreat for college students who are considering future studies at the seminary and those who serve God and their neighbors in other vocations. Don’t miss this opportunity to come to the seminary for the weekend at no cost! Check us out and join the tradition.

  • I really cherished the lectures, worship, friends, and the campus itself when I went last fall. I wanted to return again.

  • I loved the chapel services, getting to learn from esteemed professors of theology, and making friendships with other confessional Lutherans.

  • My favorite things about CAC are lectures from the best and most faithful pastors and professors, community with other Lutherans who joyfully share my confession, and chapel with faithful and pious seminarians.
