Abstrakt/ Abstract: The existence of the propaedeutic class at the Priest Seminary in Košice as the first project of its kind in Slovakia provides an opportunity to examine the candidates who attended and shaped it over the course of seven years. The author's research attempts to present the profile of those who entered the propaedeutic program and examines them from the perspective of eight parameters – age, place of origin, family, siblings, attendance at a church school, time of entry into the seminary, altar serving, and the influence of a priest. The aim of the research is to confirm or refute the proposed hypotheses and to abstract the reality we live in from the profiles of the candidates. We will also attempt to outline further development paths for a positive response from young people deciding to choose a consecrated life – the priesthood.
