Tyndale Theological Seminary is an American unaccredited private Christian seminary with its campus in Fort Worth, Texas.
Accreditation and lawsuit
Tyndale's 2007-2008 Academic Catalog states that "Tyndale Theological Seminary and Biblical Institute is not accredited, and has no plans to pursue any type of accreditation for several particular reasons..."[1]
In 1998, Tyndale Theological Seminary was fined $173,000 for issuing degrees as a seminary without a license.[2] The case led to public criticism of the seminary.[3] On August 31, 2007, an 8 to 0 decision by the Supreme Court of Texas returned the $173,000 to Tyndale.[4]
