A Note from Dr. Ron Cottle:

On November 1, 2009, Beacon University resigned from the Transnational Association of Colleges and Schools (TRACS) and from the Federal Financial Aid Program of the United States Department of Education.  This means that Beacon University is no longer a TRACS-accredited university that offers federal financial aid to its students.
 
Currently the Beacon Leadership is conducting a self-study in order to determine whether or not Beacon will continue to operate as an un-accredited institution offering theological and ministerial diplomas and degrees. 
 
This decision will be made within the next two months and a course of action for the university will be announced at this site by January 1, 2010.
