Pensacola Christian College

I attended PCC for 4 years and have seen many things most students will never see. They have a dark side like if you are accused of something you are considered guilty until proven innocent. You are treated like a kid not an adult. Yes I have met many great friends but I was very happy when I left. They are very controlling of your life. I would not recommend going here at all. Turning other students in for even the slightest thing is encouraged. It was even taught by Dr. Mulinex that it is in the Bible. And don't think that I am writing this because I didnt like the rules or any of that.

PCC is a good college for people who work hard and have priorities other than a social life. I went to college for a good education, and I got one. It was a lot of work -- I even went back for my senior year after a two year hiatus due to illness -- but the main thing to remember is that God gives strength, hope, and everything else a person needs for life -- including a job, later. Don't go to PCC if you're looking for lots of money, recognition (the college is unaccredited, and being accepted in a graduate program is difficult in most places), a state teaching certificate (some states won't license you), or a great party time. The rules are very strict to say the least, but they don't hamper you much if you're not trying to live on the edge (sometimes I was falsely accused, but that happens in life). I'd say go to PCC if you believe that's what God wants; it's a beautiful, safe place to focus on God and on your studying. I pretty much always felt that my teachers were personable and treated me as an individual, and I also met many down-to-earth, lovable people there. I'm not sorry that I went to PCC; a college degree has given me jobs I couldn't have had otherwise, and the education I received there has provided insight into how God's priorities are different from the rest of the world's.

PCC needs to make it clear to its first semester freshmen that it is not an accredited school, and it needs to explain to them how difficult it will be for its graduates to get a job. They should definitely show statistics on this for each major.

Teachers at PCC are friendly, dedicated, and competent. But PCC needs to reconsider the people who oversee and handle discipline. These people are immature and proud, especially their floor leaders.

PCC must definitely reconsider how much control it has over its students' personal lives. Spiritual matters should be handled by the pastor and the youth pastor, rather than monopolized by staff whom the students do not trust.PCC provides a great Christian environment. But it needs to understand that God doesn't want all Christians to be ultraconservative as they are. Christ always preferred to convince people and appeal to their knowledge of God, rather than forcing everyone to be like him.
