Acceptance Policy

​

Maritime Christian College welcomes students from diverse backgrounds, irrespective of physical origin (ethnic, national, or racial), skin color, gender, political affiliation, age, marital status, family relationship, or handicap. As a faith-based institution, Maritime Christian College makes one exception to a student’s background: religious belief and affiliation. Maritime Christian College expects its students to adhere in both good conscience and good faith to the following statement of faith, derived directly from Maritime Christian College’s fourth By-Law.

​

• Maritime Christian College, in its endeavor to educate and equip men and women for Christian service, will make the Bible its chief textbook, arrange all its courses of study, and conduct its work in harmony with both the Spirit and letter of the Word of God. To this end, students must believe without reservation in the full and final inspiration of the Bible such that it is, to the student, the infallible Word of God, and therefore the all-sufficient rule of faith and life; in the Deity and supreme authority of Jesus Christ; obedience to the Gospel; the edification of the Church; and the restoration of its unity on the New Testament basis.

• Believing that such faith and a church with a program in harmony with this faith are essential to the salvation of the world, Maritime Christian College will endeavor to so educate and inspire its students as to make them effective servants of Jesus Christ.

• Maritime Christian College must be independent, separate and apart from all other agencies. While intending to antagonize none, but seeking the friendship and cooperation of all in proportion that like aims are cherished, Maritime Christian College will press on to train Christian workers to preach, teach, and live Jesus Christ.
