Fast Facts

What
Cherry Hill Seminary provides quality education – both higher education and practical training – in Pagan ministry and Pagan studies. We are the first and only graduate-level education for Pagan ministry in the world, plus we offer certificate-level courses and special short courses called Insights, through online classes, regional workshops and intensive retreats.

Who
Our students come from all over the United States, as well as many other countries. Because of our distance-learning mode, most qualified individuals with internet access can receive a quality higher education not available anywhere else.

Our students are individuals who are ready to deepen their Pagan practice and studies, and who desire both the theory and practical skills which will make them more effective in their communities.

Our directors, faculty and staff are some of the best in their field, including individuals with extensive practical and career experience, in addition to their own Pagan spiritual journeys. They live in every part of the U.S., and other countries, too. Biographical information is available online.

Where
Our business office is located in Columbia, South Carolina. The Seminary is all online. Our community is all the world.

Why
Paganism is one of the fastest-growing religious groups in the world. There are many resources available for training in specific Pagan traditions, and many are now ready to begin serving outside their local groups. For this we need a competent, educated and recognizable group of scholars, leaders, teachers, chaplains and clergy who have studied in a Pagan learning environment, by Pagans, and for Pagans.

How
Charitable contributions from individuals who believe in our mission enable us to provide programs which are modestly-priced in order to be accessible to as many students as possible.
