I want to apologize to the president and vice president Dr.James and Jimmy Hayes. The students and alumni asked me to create a petition for Andersonville Theological Seminary to withdraw candidacy for the Association of Christian Colleges and Universities. I will withdraw from it and ask them to atleast respect their decision at the moment. Being that ATS is not seeking accreditation, we would love for ATS to remain honorably unaccredited and continue to improve the caliber of faculty with (accredited doctorates in their field), continue to upgrade the technology used to deliver courses, and ensure that course requirements parallel accredited seminaries and Bible Colleges.
Remain unaccredited:
Alternative Organization: This accreditation is not U.S based but used from other unaccredited organizations such as Vision International University and West Coast Bible College.
Alternative Accreditation
Accreditation Service for International Colleges, ASIC.
https://www.asicuk.com/
Articulation Agreements: Partnerships
Luther Rice Bible College and Seminary
City Vision University.
Affiliate Status:
Association of Theological Schools
https://www.ats.edu/Affiliates/
Course Delivery:
Moodle
The current course delivery is fine as well.

It is a pointless route and does more harm than good. BA 2005 MPth 2015 DMin 2021
Please either apply to reputable accreditation or remain distinctly unaccredited.
Yes, I think that an accredited school that is recognized would be a better option.

This Accreditation is actually a waste of time. And money. It is not nationally recognized. I do believe that other alumni as myself will be willing to make a donation to the seminary to help her achieve through accreditation that is recognized by acceptable national standards.
