Wikipedia quotes from the 2010 Catholic register to list 189 seminaries:
According to the 2010 Official Catholic Directory, as of 2009 there are 189 seminaries with 5,131 students in the United States; 3,319 diocesan seminarians and 1,812 religious seminarians. By the official 2011 statistics, there are 5,247 seminarians (3,394 diocesan and 1,853 religious) in the United States.
Seminaries play a crucial role in the reform of the Catholic Church by educating and training future priests and leaders. Through rigorous theological education, ethical training, and spiritual formation, seminaries can instill a commitment to the values of transparency, accountability, and social justice within the Church. By promoting critical thinking and fostering a culture of dialogue and openness, seminaries can help shape a new generation of clergy who are equipped to address the challenges facing the Church and work towards meaningful reform.
