Mississippi Christian University

Mississippi College congratulates new Choctaws on their acceptance and enrollment in the Fall of 2022. It's a great time to be a Choctaw, The Princeton Review has tapped MC as one of the "Best Southeastern Colleges;" a newly strengthened relationship between MC and the Mississippi Band of Choctaws is flourishing, and the groundwork is being laid for an exciting development on Highway 80 that will enhance the life of MC students, faculty, staff, and the community.

Dr. Steve Martin, director of MC's physician assistant program, is pleased to welcome the 36 new students. "The graduates will play an important role in helping address many needs" in Mississippi and other states. MC's program typically enrolls 90 students overall. Some of the university's PA graduates are on the frontlines treating COVID-19 patients at hospitals across the USA.

As MC begins its 195th academic year, students returned to traditional classes in the midst of a pandemic, there are many health protocols in place to protect the university family. From social distancing to frequent temperature checks and lots of sanitizing stations, it is all part of the landscape at MC as well as the case at institutions nationwide. Kyle Brantley, the Mississippi College director of admissions, believes the Class of 2024 will be special for many reasons. Students in this class, he said, "are some of the most deeply committed to MC, choosing to enroll despite difficult and uncertain world circumstances.'' MC "recruits on the strength of our academic portfolio and reputation, and on the dedication to our Christian mission. I think there's a strong segment of students who will find that attractive in a university experience.'' Students enrolling at Mississippi College in 2020-21 can sample from a smorgasbord of classes from the undergraduate level through the doctorate. MC Law School in Jackson, and the state's only physician program are seeing enrollment grow. MC's NCAA sports recently added a women's golf team. MC's equestrian team at Providence Hill Farm is among the best in the South. MC's overall enrollment includes a large number of students from across the Southeast, and other regions of the USA. There are 121 international students from dozens of nations.

As the fall semester is well underway, Mississippi College has welcomed many students to the Choctaw Family! The class of 2023 as well as transfer students are busy making MC thier new home and have already participated in a number of campus events.

Located in the Deep South, Clinton, Mississippi sits more than 1,400 miles from Boston, Massachusetts.

Transfers attending Mississippi College comprise a major chunk of the enrollment at the 5,200-student university. And many of the undergraduates continue to come from nearby Hinds Community College. Leading the wave of 508 transfers to Mississippi College last year were 115 former Hinds CC students. Mississippi's largest two-year school, Hinds operates campuses in Raymond, Utica, Vicksburg, Pearl and Jackson. Opening its doors in 1917, Hinds has served as a strong feeder school to the Baptist-affiliated university for generations.
