Discernment Days Winter 2026

If you’ve ever wondered whether seminary was for you, Seattle Pacific Seminary invites you to explore your calling and vocation at Discernment Days. This year, we're hosting two opportunities to learn more about Seattle Pacific Seminary. The first opportunity is an evening webinar (online) on February 16 at 4:00 and the second opportunity is an in-person campus visit on February 17 beginning at 12:30 PM. Prospective students will have the opportunity to visit classes, meet with current students, faculty, and administrators, and tour the campus. This event is free, and food is included for the in-person event! The schedule for both events are listed below.

Students who attend Discernment Days (in person or online) and are accepted to begin a Seminary program at SPS in the 2026-2027 Academic Year will receive a $1000 scholarship simply for attending this event!
