Tennessee Temple University operated as a private Baptist institution in the Highland Park neighborhood of Chattanooga, Tennessee from 1946 until its closure in 2015. Located in an urban setting approximately 2 miles from downtown Chattanooga, the campus occupied several blocks with a mix of mid-century and modern academic buildings. The university maintained strong ties to Highland Park Baptist Church and focused primarily on ministry training, Christian education, and biblical studies programs. While the institution offered both undergraduate and graduate degrees, residential student housing was limited to traditional dormitories separated by gender. The university ceased operations due to declining enrollment and financial challenges, with remaining students transferring to Piedmont International University (now Carolina University).
