Celebrating 200 years in 2026!

We’re proud to be Mississippi’s oldest institution of higher learning.

What’s in a name?

200 years since the first students stepped foot on its historic campus, Mississippi’s oldest institution of higher learning and the second oldest Baptist university in the nation has officially adopted a new name that more clearly reflects who we are and what we stand for as an institution.

Discover a Christian university with a proven track record of life-changing opportunities.

Whether you’re a freshman or a grad student, you’ll find a community that will challenge, encourage, and guide you. Here, you’ll discover the person God created you to be — both inside the classroom and out. Here, you rise.

MC has helped prepare me for life after school. Being an accounting major within the business school gives me the opportunity to hear from successful men and women who are in the workforce and are living for Christ.
