Call for Comments on
Accreditation Self-Study
- AGTS has been accredited with The Association of Theological Schools (ATS) in the United
States and Canada since 1992 and The Higher Learning Commission (HLC), which is a member of the North Central Association, the regional accrediting agency of the North Central states, since 1978. The seminary was last awarded accreditation in 2001. - In order to complete the 10-year reaccreditation process, AGTS has created an in-depth self-study and has produced a written report that illustrates how the seminary meets the standards of ATS
and the criterion of HCL. - On March 14-16, 2011, the school will undergo a comprehensive evaluation visit by a team made up of representatives from each of these accrediting agencies. This team will gather evidence to determine that the self-study report is accurate and thorough.
- We invite you to review the Self-Study Report and to comment on the report and/or AGTS to either ATS or HLC by going to http://www.agts.edu/academics/selfstudy.html.
