Pensacola Christian College

I grew up in both the HS and the College. I wish I could give a positive report to what has been my life. Since having left I realize that what they teach about the Bible is true, but what they teach about the Christian life is not Biblical. The school has taken such an oppositional, exclusivist approach that fellow believers expect me to judge them after having heard where I come from. My recommendation, attend another school--get an accredited degree--and go where you can be free in Christ.

This school has beautiful facilities and good cafeteria food. That is only positive thing I have to say about it.

This college is not accredited. Although they will try to tell you that accredidation does not matter, this is a lie.

I graduated with honors and had the highest reccomendation from my professors. However, I still had an extremely difficult time getting accepted into graduate school, simply because my undergraduate degree was not acredited, and then name of this college holds no weight in the real world. I have a very close friend who graduated from this college with an accounting degree, and had a 4.0 gpa. He passed his CPA exam on his first try. However, because he graduated from this unacredited college, he cannot become a CPA: his degree is worthless.

In talking with my classmates in graduate school, I have found that my undergraduate degree is much lacking in comparison to theirs. Although there may be a few good professors, many of them are leaving, because they are seeing the problems that the college has. Many of the professors and department heads that are currently there also went to school at this college, and thus have no perspective on how the real world opporates.Although this college is cheap - probably the most inexpensive one you will find, I have found that you get what you pay for. I would not reccoment this college to any highschool student, with the exception of someone who wanted to go into full time Christian ministry. The most positive thing I gained from going to this college was the determination it gave me to overcome the handicap in my education that I have because I went there.
