Online Theological Education for Pastors, Leaders & Believers

An accredited institution that has passed rigorous evaluation by an independent agency to meet strict academic, ethical, and financial standards. Only students at accredited institutions can receive federal grants and loans through the FAFSA.

Some seminaries or colleges deliberately avoid accreditation to maintain theological independence or to offer flexible, lower-cost courses to students who cannot afford or take the time to pursue a more traditional education.

CTS is not accredited by any agency authorized by the US Education Department for financial and Biblical integrity reasons.
