About

The Mississippi College School of Law will become the Mississippi Christian University School of Law but will remain known as MC Law or MC School of Law. May 2026 graduates’ diplomas will still read Mississippi College School of Law. Beginning with Summer 2026 graduates, diplomas will read Mississippi Christian University School of Law. As we celebrate our legacy as Mississippi’s oldest institution of higher learning and the second oldest Baptist University in the nation, we are adopting a name that more clearly articulates who we are and what we stand for as an institution. Beginning June 1, Mississippi College officially became Mississippi Christian University. (Source: https://www.mc.edu/introducing-mississippi-christian-university)
