WHERE WE HAVE BEEN

partnerships with many national
ministry organizations. More than 7,000 students

around the world are enrolled in a wide variety of ministry
related programs of study.
MISD is an Affiliated Member of the
Association for Biblical Higher Education, a member of the
Association of Christian Continuing Education Schools and
Seminaries, and is certified by the

We enjoy the benefits of academic partnerships with two
accredited institutions: (Columbia

WHERE WE ARE
MOST RECENTLY
ANNOUNCING
HISTORIC MILESTONE -
Master's is honored to
announce recognition by the world's largest Christian
University! MISD has received approval to announce that
we have been given authorization by the
Graduate School of Liberty University to make selected
official referrals of our bachelor's, master's and doctoral
graduates for acceptance into an appropriate graduate degree
program at Liberty.
Generally this means
that upon official referral by MISD, bachelor's graduates may
apply for admission to the Graduate School of Liberty
University, and master's & doctoral graduates may apply to
have their degree and/or credits recognized for transfer into
an appropriate Liberty University master's program (thereby
reducing the number of credits required).
Specifically this means
that graduates of MISD must first request, and then
obtain, an official referral by MISD before making
application to the Graduate School of Liberty University.
MISD will first determine the relevancy and appropriateness of
the degree earned. If an official referral is issued by
MISD, the graduate will then be authorized to apply for
admission to an appropriate Liberty University master's degree
program.
-
For graduates

WHERE WE ARE
HEADED AND WHAT YOU CAN DO NOW
Master’s is now an established and respected member of the
Christian higher education community. However, we must
continue to build our reputation, and seek additional
opportunities for academic and learning partnerships. We
must also continue to improve student recruitment which is a
major challenge in today's highly competitive environment.
Our
longer term goal of achieving recognized accreditation is
primarily dependent on increased student recruitment, and
building a solid financial base from which to fund the high
cost of reaching that milestone. These goals are
attainable, and while nothing is guaranteed, we are confident
of God's guidance and blessing in the years to come.
WHAT YOU CAN DO NOW
-
GRADUATES - Pray for MISD, refer prospective students, put a
link to MISD on your ministry or personal web site, and make
a financial contribution.
-
STUDENTS - Keep your coursework and student tuition
payments current, be certain that we have your current
residential address, phone numbers, and email address, pray
for MISD, refer prospective students, and put a link to MISD
on your ministry or personal web site.
-
PROSPECTS - Become a student, pray for MISD, refer other
prospective students, and put a link to MISD on your
ministry or personal web site.
-
FRIENDS - Pray for MISD, refer prospective students, put a
link to MISD on your ministry or personal web site, and make
a financial contribution.
