The school is aOther
The school is a great safe place for meeting friends that will last for a lifetime. I still see my friends from college and I'm now married with three kids.

Question
PCC has many good qualities: campus safety, excellentEducation
PCC has many good qualities: campus safety, excellent
Biblical teaching/preaching, and professionalism about everything thing they do. I spent 4 years at PCC and these were the good qualities that stood out for me. (Also, had I not attended PCC I probably never would have met my husband.)

However, there is a down side to the school. I think the staff could have been a little bit friendlier, especially the teachers at the academy. As an intern at Pensacola Christian Academy, I took away a wealth of knowledge, but not always in a good way. My advisory teacher was very rude and sarcastic. The social life at PCC could have been a little better. Yes, they have social events on campus but, what is wrong with a bunch of co-ed students going out together, all scanning out of course, to go to a pizza place and having a good time? PCC staff and faculty are everywhere in the city. A student/students would only be doing themselves a disservice if they decided to go somewhere they should go or do something they shouldn't do.

My PCC experience in a nutshell: I made life long friends, stayed out of trouble, met my future husband a few years later, and got my degree. My advice to you if you are considering PCC: don't come here if you have a hard time following rules and please keep in mind that it is not accredited, which may or may not be an issue depending on where you go to further your education. Not all rules are bad, but some of the rules at PCC were a little ridiculous (i.e., pantyhose everywhere/everyday) and of course the several "unwritten rules".

Question
This was a great college for my majorBrightReligion/Religious
This was a great college for my major if you want to go somewheres cheap this is it. It doesnt cost hardly anything. Mostly what you learn about is the Bible and how the King James Bible was inspired by God he told all the profits how to write it down and such. Practicly every class is about how the King James Bible is the only one. You get tired of hearing about it so much sometimes and then you repent and start back liking to hear about it.

Some people complain about accredation but I never had no problem with church's taking my degree to be a preacher, I've been preaching now as evangelist and been in almost 7 churches in the last 4 years, none of them asked me about accredation. So there. Also I dont know anything about other majors but if you go to PCC you dont have to go to seminary you already learned the KJB is inspired so that's that.

Now about the rules this is God's Boot Camp and so they are strickt. But you learn fast to behave dont worry about it.

Also you can get a job working at just about anything on campus for 3.75 an hour, that adds up fast because there isnt nothing in town to spend the money on.Also if you are not convince by my argument so far just look at there buildings and you will se God has blessed them greatly.
