Mississippi College (MC) is a beautiful and historic campus in Clinton, MS. Founded in 1826, MC is both the oldest institution of higher learning and the largest private university in the state of Mississippi. It is also the second-oldest Baptist university in the nation. As a private, co-educational, Christian university affiliated with the Mississippi Baptist Convention, MC values the integration of faith and learning throughout the educational process. We seek faculty and staff who are committed Christians and whose principles are exemplified in their daily lives. MC was named among the Best Christian Colleges (#16 of 333) in America by Niche. The University is accredited by SACSCOC, and planning is now underway for the University’s 2026 Bicentennial Celebration, the first 200th anniversary of an institution of higher learning in Mississippi.

Our Vision Is “To Be Known as a University Recognized for Academic Excellence and Commitment to the Cause of Christ.”
