Faith Baptist College and Seminary
Faith Baptist College and Seminary was a private Baptist-oriented college located in Anderson, South Carolina, USA, during the 1990s. It ceased operations by early 1998. The college specialized in offering degrees in religious studies and minister training, along with a limited number of graduate degrees, including history. Notably, it lacked accreditation from recognized accrediting organizations and relied on accreditation from religious bodies.
Founded by Dr. James Bishop in Morgantown, Kentucky, Faith Baptist College and Seminary initially provided undergraduate studies through correspondence. Following Dr. Bishop's passing in 1988, the school relocated to Anderson, South Carolina, under the leadership of Dr. Michael A. Smith. The institution operated multiple campus sites, including a main campus in Pickens, South Carolina, from 1992 to 1995. Additionally, satellite campuses were established in Dayton, Ohio, Detroit, and Asheboro, North Carolina, for several years. In 1995, the schools were relocated to Louisiana and later to California. However, due to low enrollment, they were eventually shuttered. School records are now housed at Whitefield Theological Seminary in Florida.
