BOILING SPRINGS, N.C. — A Baptist-affiliated divinity school in North Carolina has won accreditation by the Association of Theological Schools (ATS).
In January the ATS accredited Gardner-Webb University’s M. Christopher White School of Divinity. The accreditation completes a six-year process and lasts for five years, the longest period possible for a school receiving initial accreditation. Divinity School Dean Wayne Stacy called it an important distinction for the school, founded in 1992, which enrolls 150 students in four disciplines.
With 237 member institutions, the Pittsburgh, Pa.-based ATS has been accrediting graduate theological schools in North America since 1938.
