Uncertain Future for Northpoint Bible College Amidst Accreditation Challenges

December 29, 2025 - 11:32

The future of Northpoint Bible College, located on the former Bradford College campus in Haverhill, hangs in the balance as the institution faces the possibility of losing its accreditation as soon as February. The Association for Biblical Higher Education Commission on Accreditation has issued a “show cause” order, compelling the college to justify why it should retain its accreditation status.

This order comes in the wake of significant financial concerns that have plagued the college. The administration is now tasked with addressing these issues and demonstrating compliance with the standards set by the accrediting body. If the college fails to adequately respond to the order, it may lose its accreditation, which could severely impact student enrollment and financial aid opportunities.

As the deadline approaches, the college community is left anxiously awaiting the outcome of this critical situation, which could reshape the institution's future and its role in providing biblical education.
