General Information

Wesley Biblical Seminary (www.wbs.edu) exists to educate and train men and women who, in
fulfillment of the Church’s mission, will live and proclaim Trinitarian faith, promote the Spirit-filled life, and in full commitment to the absolute authority of the Bible, actively make disciples of Jesus Christ.

Located in Ridgeland MS, the institution is a non-denominational institution rooted in the
Wesleyan Holiness tradition and has been equipping students with the knowledge and skills to
communicate the gospel to a world that needs a Savior for 45 years. Students graduate with
hearts passionate about God’s will, minds trained to understand God’s word, and lives ready to
serve in God’s mission. Wesley Biblical Seminary and The College are rare institutions that
affirm both the inerrancy of Scripture and the necessity of holy living for every Christian. In an
increasingly pluralistic world, the Church needs leaders who are committed to the truth of
Scripture and who can set an example with their lives.

The institution is accredited by the Association of Theological Schools, the Mississippi
Commission on College Accreditation, and NC-SARA. It also holds Applicant Status with the
Association of Biblical Higher Education. The seminary also has approval from the Department of Defense and the State Approving Agency for qualifying military personnel (active duty and reserve) and veterans to receive educational funds from the Department of Defense and Veterans Administration. The Immigration and Naturalization Service of the United States Department of Justice (SEVIS/SEVP) recognizes Wesley Biblical Seminary as an educational center for international
students. The seminary is a member of the National Association of Evangelicals.
