Title
Dordt College: Reformed, Christian College Education
Description
HISTORY: Associated with the Christian Reformed Church, Dordt College was founded in 1955 and today welcomes all students who are interested in a biblical, Christ-centered education.
OUR NAME: Dordt College takes its name from the historic Synod of Dordrecht, held in the Netherlands in 1618-1619. The Canons of Dordt, one of the three major confessional statements of Reformed churches, came from that synod. The Canons of Dordt were a response to statements made by the followers of Jacob Arminius, and emphasized the sovereignty of God through his electing grace.
ACCREDITATION: Dordt College is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools as a four-year bachelor-degree-granting institution. Our accreditation dates from 1971 with the most recent renewal in 2001. In 1994 the college also gained approval from NCA to offer a graduate program leading to the Master of Education degree. Dordt College also has accredited programs in education, social work, and engineering.
