Resource: List of Seminaries

Virginia Beach Theological Seminary also offers a Th.M. and they are Tracs accredited.

One in particular caught my attention: Baptist Bible Seminary of Clarks Summit, PA is a full service seminary! What I mean is this: it appears that the pdf. file has listings for the Baptist Bible Graduate School, but not the seminary.

BBS offers MMin, MDiv, ThM, DMin and PhD degrees, and those are not listed in the pdf. file.

AND

MBBC is also accredited regionally.

I updated. Thanks

Jim,

Maranatha Baptist Seminary is fully online now and has regional accreditation. The website doesn’t reflect the 100% online status, but it is a fact. I’m 2/3 finished with my MDiv online.

Tyler is a pastor in Olympia, WA and works in State government.

In an earlier revision I did indicate that MBBC has regional accreditation. (The 8/13/2013 file above)

Consolidation has been good for the airline industry. Now we have the big 5:

Consolidation would be good for the seminaries with doctrinal / positional affinity. Imagine a seminary where 5 fundamentalist schools merge into 1 with 5 campuses right out of the chute. All the backoffice functions would be centralized (registrar, IT, business office, et cetera). Blackboard could be used for the online but there would be plenty of face to face with professors at the regional campuses. Then double the campuses. Use technology to drive the cost.

Consolidation has been good for the airline industry. Now we have the big 5:

Most people who fly a lot would disagree with you. Fewer airlines means less competition in pricing and worse service.

Not that that has anything to do with seminaries.

I hate flying. I have to fly next week to Charlotte. Jammed into coach seat with my knees against the seat in front of me. Add to that the grief of the TSA. Oy vey!

Long term, A/L consolidation has resulted in lower fares. There are peculiarities in the industry that hamper pure competition … like when one airline dominates a hub. Southwest is a great ‘buster’ of this trend and it works well in Chicago that has a 2nd airport (Midway) and Dallas (Love Field)

But back to the seminary thing …. my point was that there are back office efficiencies that could result from consolidation. But it ain’t gonna happen anyway!

Central and Faith looked at this. I can’t imagine two other institutions better suited for joining forces, yet they couldn’t overcome all the hurdles. Sadly doesn’t seem likely.

Why is it that my voice always seems to be loudest when I am saying the dumbest things?
