Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary (SEBTS) is a Baptist theological institute in Wake Forest, North Carolina. It is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention.[2] in Wake Forest, North Carolina. It was created in 1950 to meet a need in the SBC's East Coast region.[3] It was voted into existence on May 19, 1950, at the SBC annual meeting[4] and began offering classes in the fall of 1951[4] on the original campus of Wake Forest University (then Wake Forest College) in Wake Forest, North Carolina. The undergraduate program is called The College at Southeastern.[5] The current president is Daniel L. Akin.
It has been accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada (ATS) since 1958[6] and by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) since 1978.[7]
