In the fall of 1966, Reformed Theological Seminary (RTS) opened its doors for resident studies in Jackson, Mississippi with an enrollment of seventeen students.  Since that time, RTS has grown to eight campuses and an online program. RTS Global Education offers three fully online distance education MA programs. Today, RTS teaches more residential MDiv credit hours than any seminary in North America. In addition, RTS offers classes at international locations in partnership with other ministries and schools.

Reformed Theological Seminary is accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada and by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to award the MDiv, MAR, MATS, MABS, MAC, MACC, and DMin.
