It's been said before, but know what you're getting into with this school.
At this school, you will be safe and not have to deal with people who came to school just to party. If you are a Christian (and you should be to go here), you will meet people who can be a great help in your spiritual walk. Many of the teachers are wonderful people. The nursing program is tough, but excellent training.

The nursing program is tough, but excellent training.
HOWEVER, you will be asked to conform to many rules - and I guarantee you won't agree with all of them. You will meet some people (who unfortunately often end up in leadership roles)who are so petty and unkind that you wonder how they can call themselves Christian. And the school places an extremely high value on what they consider to be a good public image, sometimes at the expense of their students sanity. (You try relaxing at the mall with pantyhose on!)
For four years, I sucked it up and followed their rules. I couldn't do it now that I've been out on my own. You do give up a lot of individuality. If you're the kind of person who tends to get in to minor trouble, don't go to PCC. You'll be miserable. One last note - if you are thinking of an education major, don't bother coming here. You may know what you're doing at the end, but you won't be able to prove to a prospective employer that you know what you're doing.

“Pensacola Christian College has a great academic program,Computer Science
Pensacola Christian College has a great academic program, and the instructors are very accessible. While it is a strict college, it helps you develop the discipline that you will need when you enter the workforce.
PCC's stand for the Word of God is excellent, and their are plenty of oppurtunities for spiritual growth. PCC also has a friendly very friendly student body which helps smooth the transition from high school to college.If you are looking for a good Christian college with a great academic program, I recommend that you seriously consider Pensacola Christian College.
