Accreditation & Affiliation
The King’s College and Seminary is accredited
by both the Transnational Association of Christian Colleges and Schools
(PO Box 328, Forest, Virginia, 804-525-9539) at the Carnegie Category
IV level (through the first professional doctorate level) and by the
Commission on Accreditation of The Association for Biblical Higher Education.
(5575 S. Semoran Blvd., Orlando, Florida, 407-207-0808). Both the Transnational
Association of Christian Colleges and Schools and the Association of
Biblical Higher Education (formerly The Accrediting Association of Bible
Colleges) are members of the Commission of Higher Education Accreditation
(CHEA).
The Institution is listed in the current editions of both The American Council on Education’s Accredited Institution of Postsecondary Education and in the Higher Education directory. The institution participates in the U.S. Department of Education Title IV Program, which offers students access to Pell Grants, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunities Grants, Federal Work Study, and Stafford Education loan programs. Graduates of the Seminary are recognized by all branches of the U.S. military for participation in the Military Chaplaincy. The King’s is approved to participate in the Veteran’s Administration educational assistance programs.
The King’s is an outgrowth of the ministry of Pastor Jack W. Hayford and The Church On The Way of Los Angeles, California. As such, the school has a vital relationship with the 21,000 constituent church. Having been birthed through The Church On The Way, the institution walks in mutual partnership with the church’s leadership in fulfilling its mission of preparing and equipping servant leaders for ministry in the local church and community. Through this relationship the school has a religious exemption status as provided within the provisions of the State of California Education Code with the Bureau for Private Post-Secondary and Vocation Education.
