ABOUT TYNDALE UNIVERSITY

Tyndale University was founded in 1894 as the Toronto
Bible Training School. Later it changed its name to Toronto
Bible College and in 1968 merged with the London College
of Bible and Missions to become Ontario Bible College.
The Seminary was established in 1976 to offer graduate
theological education. In 1998, the name Tyndale was
assumed, honouring William Tyndale (1494-1536), the early
English reformer whose commitment to making Scripture
available to all persons led him to undertake the first English
translation of the Bible from original languages. He is a model
for scholarship, faith, and vision.

In 2003, following a robust review by the Postsecondary
Education Quality Assessment Board (PEQAB), Tyndale was
granted university college status by the Province of Ontario.
In 2007, Tyndale received approval from the Ontario Ministry
of Training, Colleges and Universities and from the Ontario
College of Teachers to offer a Bachelor of Education program.
The Seminary's graduate degrees, including the Doctor
of Ministry degree, are accredited by The Commission on
Accrediting of The Association of Theological Schools in the
United States and Canada. In early 2020, following another
review by PEQAB and their recommendation to the Ministry,
Ministerial consent was granted to use the name Tyndale
University. Tyndale's name was legally changed in December
2020 through an act of legislation to Tyndale University to
clarify its standing as a postsecondary institution that focuses
on high-quality academics and professional programs at the
undergraduate, seminary and graduate levels.

Undergraduate level options include a BA, BBA, BRE, and
BEd degree or a certificate in Christian Studies. Graduate
level options include an MA, MTS, MDiv, DMin, post-DMin, or
graduate diploma. Tyndale presently serves 1,600 students
annually representing more than 40 denominations and 60
ethnic backgrounds. Today, Tyndale alumni are making a
difference in the world and are working in private, public and
not-for-profit sectors.
