Jacksonville College

Jacksonville College is a private 2-year college located in the East Texas city of Jacksonville, Texas. It is the oldest 2-year college in Texas (opening in 1899, though prior to 1918 it operated as a four-year institution) and is the only private 2-year college in Texas which is fully accredited.

The college is owned and operated by the Baptist Missionary Association of America, a conservative-leaning Baptist denomination. However, the college also receives support from the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention, the Texas state convention aligned with the Southern Baptist Convention.
