Pensacola Christian College

I am a middle-aged business admin. graduate of PCC. I cannot recommend PCC to anyone, unless he is 100% sure God wants him there. You'll get an unaccredited degree, and an inches' thick rule book. You'll be treated like a junior high student all over again, instead of the young adult that you are.

PCC prides itself on its ability to not get along with other Christian colleges or denominations. It does not have many friends in the Christian or secular education world. I purposefully steered my honors-graduate daughter to other accredited and respected colleges, and she is thriving as a Christian student in a secular university, where she can be a Christian example to her classmates, while getting one of the finest educations anywhere.

I graduated from PCC and have been recommending people stay away ever since.
I actually was born again right before attending PCC, and was looking forward to the challenging, useful, Christian education I was going to get. Well, the education was taught from a 'Christian' perspective, but it was neither challenging and of course is totally useless because of the lack of accreditation. I married a doctor and we laugh about how we could shred my degree (I actually don't even know where it is), but we should frame hers in gold just to show the difference of value in our education.Anyway, I never progressed as a Christian while at PCC. I regressed. I know that I can't put the blame on PCC for my spiritual failures, but they do not provide an environment where a young Christian can grow. As a Christian, I ended up confused, angry, and bitter about spiritual things. By my junior year I was just hoping to get kicked out so I could go somewhere else. I skipped Bible Conference, went off campus with women, went to Panama City for Spring Break, went to movies, went to Hooters, etc. you name it. I fell back into almost the same lifestyle I lived before Christ. After I left PCC, I got into a good church under good leadership and made good friends who showed me what real Christianity was about. My brother went to PCC and is a godly pastor (not in the PCC mold) and doesn't recommend PCC - that should tell you something. Go somewhere else - God wants you to follow Him because YOU want to, not because an institution does.

This College is a cult. Come here if you want to be rejected by society. It does not belong in a democracy like America. God would be ashamed of the people responsible for such an abominable "education".
