Community Life at Mid-America
As a seminary student, we support your academic, spiritual, and personal growth. Here, you will build strong relationships with others while exploring your calling to Biblical leadership through a committed study of the Truth of God’s Word.
The sense of community extends to all aspects of the Mid-America experience. Students grow and serve together in and out of the classroom and are mentored by faculty through life-on-life connections. From campus organizations and local ministries to just hanging out in the student lounge, there’s always a place to connect.


Welcome to Memphis
Being located in one of the greatest cities in the South has its perks; great food, incredible history, music, and so much more are just minutes from our campus.
Relocating to Memphis? Our students love living here! The seminary campus, including our comfortable and secure student housing, is conveniently located. Memphis is packed with many Fortune 500 companies, churches, ministries, and other organizations that make it a great place to continue your education.
Students and their families regularly engage in community opportunities for hands-on ministry, evangelism, and leadership.

Student Housing
Our campus offers affordable, apartment-style dorm options for students. Nearby churches, restaurants, and shopping plus great highway access make our student housing a comfortable, convenient, secure option for many students.
Each three-bedroom dorm unit includes a shared living space, kitchen, a full-size washer, dryer, refrigerator, dishwasher, and disposal. The dorm rates also include furniture and utility costs. Single- and double-occupancy options are available.
Get Connected
Build relationships that go beyond the classroom. At Mid-America there are many opportunities to be involved in campus life and strengthen relationships with other students and faculty.


Prepared for the Sake of the Gospel
Students at Mid-America benefit from our relationships with churches and organizations in our region and abroad. With over 85% of our alumni still serving in ministry, our graduates are well-prepared and highly sought after around the Mid-South and the world.
Our Career Services office works to connect students with a variety of ministry opportunities. From resume help to prayerful counsel, our goal is to prepare students for life and service after seminary.
