Our accreditation story

MBS was founded in 2019 as an affiliate campus of Metro Atlanta Seminary to provide quality theological training that is accessible, affordable, and accredited through the Association of Reformed Theological Seminaries (ARTS).  MBS applied for membership in ARTS independent from MAS. We completed a self-study in September 2022 and a site-visit in March 2023. MBS was granted full membership and accreditation by ARTS in October 2023. As an accrediting agency, ARTS has applied for recognition by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) as a religious institution offering degrees.
