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.

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.

I hope that these alternative format's be a great help for each of us.
