Philadelphia College of Bible is now known as Philadelphia Biblical University. It's been around much longer than Lousiana Baptist University. It was the result of a merger of two institutions in the 1950 that grew out of the Bible college movement of the late 1800s. C.I. Scofield was a founder of one of the original schools. That should tell you something of their theologcal distinctives.

And unlike LBU, it is accredited by several agencies.

Just a note that, to the best of my knowledge, Grant Jeffrey never received any degree from PCB. His bio merely says that he studied there.
