Gateway College is now accredited...
 
As of yesterday, the vote was passed at GC11. Gateway College of Evangelism has been aquired by the UPCI and will cease to exist after this school year is up. The new school will open in fall 2011. Also, the name will change. It will be ??? University. This school will be the first ever UPCI University, and the first out of all the UPCI bible college's to obtain accreditation. Get ready to see enrollment sky rocket.

Interesting! Will it be more than just a bible school? Will it be a liberal arts college? (or should I say a "conservative" arts college?) :heeheehee

Gateway College of Evangelism is in St. Louis.

Fall of 2011?

Long overdue. All of the Bible schools are struggling to get students and why not? They have been promising accreditation for years, even have received offerings to try to accomplish such but to no avail. I was told that all of the Bible school presidents were approached about consolidating for the purpose of establishing an accredited college. It was resisted. So this must be the move in spite of the Bible schools. This will put the Bible schools out of business or they will get on the ball and finally attain accreditation. I would venture to say ABI, IBC, TBC and CLC will not be able to remain viable. UPC young people will be drawn to St. Louis in order to get a real degree and have something to show for it after four years of investment.

Is this a move toward education and away from indoctrination? We can only pray so.

Do you mean Fall of 2012?

Nothing on the link provided in this thread shows that this "new" college exists right now.

Nothing on the link provided states that Gateway or the "new" college is now accredited.


Am I missing something?

Two questions: who is going to accredit the college (that does matter ya know?). And isn't acredidation a process that takes longer than a year?
