Description: Holy Apostles (1956) was founded in Cromwell, Connecticut, by The Very Reverend Eusebe M. Menard, OJ.M., to provide a college-level program of education and formation especially for adults who sought to answer God's call to the priesthood later in life, with an academic and seminary environment suited to their age and background. Holy Apostles Seminary was then a college-level preparatory seminary, which Fr. Menard entrusted to the Missionaries of the Holy Apostles. In 1972, in accordance with both the directives' of Vatican Council II and its responsibilities in the larger Christian community, Holy Apostles broadened its purpose to include undergraduate degrees for men and women who were not seminarians. This began Holy Apostles College division. In 1978 the focus of the seminary program was broadened to include a graduate degree program in addition to the undergraduate seminary program. For the first time, seminarians were able to earn the Master of Divinity degree and complete the entire program of priestly formation. The aim of ICU is to make the Catholic intellectual, cultural, and literary patrimony available to those unable to attend a traditional campus.
