What are your opinion's on Trinity Bible College and Theological Seminary?

If you mean the school located in Newburgh, Indiana, there are those who regard it as a degree mill with a very dubious history. On the other hand, there are those who feel it has made some changes and is headed in the right direction especially since they are a candidate for regional accreditation.

I would have no problems recommending this school but you must be aware accreditation is not a certainty just because they are in candidate status.

Just returned from Trinity's Commencement ceremonies (8/6/05) where a pastor-friend of mine received his D.Min. I was very impressed with the ceremonies, which included luncheons, banquets and a reception after graduation. There were graduates there from several states as well as other countries. Trinity's campus incorporates several acres and buildings with a very modern/state-of-the-art seminar complex. They are a candidate for accreditation with North Central, and I expect they will achieve such. As a former student, the only complaint I have is with their finance department. I have had quite a passal of problems with them, much of it very well may have been due to my own makeing for not being more aggressive and attentive in nailing down the particulars of the grants, fees and hidden costs, but none-the-less it has been frustrating. One word of advice, If you are interested in Trinity, you will be better served with their on-line or seminar format rather than the correspondance track. Their correspondance courses are the most demanding of any i've ever taken. My overall opinion of Trinity, for whatever it might be worth, is very favorable. Thanks for listening; Foxtrotter. :)
