Mississippi College, or “MC” as our friends and alumni
call us, is the oldest college in Mississippi and the second oldest
Baptist College in the world. Founded in 1826, we boast a distinguished
history replete with many outstanding alumni. In fact, we rank 19th
in the nation in the number of our graduates who have completed doctoral
degrees – a testimony to our excellent academic reputation.
U.S. News and World Report ranks MC in the “Top 10” category
of best values and we have been selected for ten years to be on the
Honor Roll of Character Building Institutions of the Templeton Foundation.
Our mission remains constant as we seek to provide the best in academic
programs but we know our distinction does not rest only in our academic
reputation. We are a university committed to Christian higher education
in the pursuit of Christian truth and in service to the world.
We invite you to learn more about this fine institution of Christian
higher education.
