Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary earned a reaffirmation of accreditation from the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), extending the seminary’s accreditation through 2028. The Institutional Actions Council of the HLC met on March 4, 2019, to determine the seminary’s accreditation status.
The seminary was evaluated on five criteria of the HLC – mission, institutional integrity, teaching and learning, learning assessment, and institutional effectiveness. Garrett-Evangelical met the criteria of all five areas with two interim reports due in October 2020.
