I'm so sorry to see the negative reviewsQuite BrightEducation
I'm so sorry to see the negative reviews after all these years. I attended for one semester, Fall of 1981. I did not know of all of their rules prior to going and it was just not how I was raised. Yes, I am a Christian, but no, I am not legalistic at all. If you are not raised in an ultra-strict environment, please find out all the rules before you make your decision to attend here.. Only attend if you know you can handle their way of life. Dresses only 24/7, no dating without a babysitter. No touching at all. Schedule from sunup to sundown with nighttime curfews. No staying up all night to study.. No modern music including Contemporary Christian music. Get a handbook and make your own decision before you go. Just make certain you are getting what you pay for.

The year I spent attending PCC was theSuper BrilliantDesign Arts - Industrial Design/Graphic Design/etc
The year I spent attending PCC was the worse year of my life. The campus feels more like a prison than a college. There is a fence with razor wire enclosing the entire campus. They make you go to bed by 11pm every night, even on weekends, no matter what homework projects you may may be working on, no matter what, no exceptions, unless you want demerits. They love to give demerits there and everyone is encouraged to be a snitch. They make you go to chapel church services every single day, and some days you have to go to church more than once, the only exception is if you are sick enough to be in the infirmary. They make you attend a formal dinner every night and make you dress up for dinner too. They also require the students to dress up for all morning classes, no matter what the class was too. Women have to wear a dress or skirt and hose most of the time. The men and women have their own elevators, must not be together in isolated areas, cannot swim together, even at the beach. They have separated beaches for the men and women. You aren't allowed to have any music by a contemporary artist or anything with even the slightest beat. You aren't allowed to have your own opinions about anything and creativity and individuality is totally stifled. This was not a good recipe for being a successful artist. They do not prepare you for the real world unless you want to work at and be totally immersed in a strict, judgmental and very dogmatic church for your whole life. Do not attend this school. Run as far away from it as you can.

PCC is a laughable attempt at an institute of higher learning. Really sad.
