Shelton College
Shelton College was a private, Christian, liberal arts college that was located in Cape May, New Jersey. The school traces its origins to the National Bible Institute, which was founded in New York City in 1908. In 1963 Carl McIntire acquired the school and it became Shelton College. In 1980 the United States Supreme Court upheld a decision of the Supreme Court of New Jersey that forbade Shelton from granting degrees.[1][2][3] The school became a certificate granting institution until it closed in 1992.
