Atlantic Union College in Lancaster to Close

Atlantic Union College, a small Christian school in Lancaster struggling with finances and a lack of accreditation, will effectively close after the spring semester.

The college announced the news Wednesday, a day after telling its students, who number fewer than 50. Atlantic Union offers two majors: theology, and health science and biology.

The college's board of trustees and a committee of the Atlantic Union Conference, an affiliated supporter of the college, voted this month to stop offering bachelor's degrees after the semester ends, they said in a statement. Certificate programs will end no later than December.
