Definitely school of some sort.

My personal experience is studying music composition and theory (NOT MUSIC ED). And my "seminary" experience is from the school of life.

I'm not sold that every person has to go to seminary, and I know others would argue otherwise, but I'm doing fine, I have a solid grasp on theology because I dig in deep and I'm surrounded by solid mentors.

All that to say, each INDIVIDUAL student shoul seek God and the counsel of those who are closest to them, and ultimately should pursue the direction that God opens up in front of them. Common sense says that the more "trained and equipped" they are (be it a music degree or a seminary degree) the better off they'll be at leading others in the same area of ministry.
