I currently work with high school seniors, and I do not recommed PCC. It was a bizarre 4 years. There are so many rules they have that I feel have no biblical basis. They preach their convictions as doctrine and distort scripture to guilt students into submission.

So many of my friends disappeared in the middle of the night. The deans would buy a plane ticket, put it on the student's bill, and my friends would be gone by morning. They have so many rules, you would expect people to be kicked out if there was a reason or a specific rule broken, but that was not always the case. Many of my friends were told, "It is a privelege to attend here, and after watching you, we do not feel that you have conformed to the standards that we set for our students."

I regret attending there ,but once you start, you are stuck. The college is not accredited, so if you transfer, you have to start all over. Some Christians need an enviroment where they are constantly monitored and held to the highest levels of accountability. For that type of Christian, PCC would be a good option. If you are already a grounded, spiritually growing person, I would not recommend PCC. I found in my own experience, PCC stunted me spiritually, distorted my view of God, and left me with a bitternes that I had to work through after graduation.

Question
If you are reading these reviews trying toQuite BrightNursing
If you are reading these reviews trying to decide if PCC is right for you, all I have to say is let the reviews speak for themselves. If you like math - add up the statistics yourself. There are probably 5 negative comments for every 1 positive AT THE VERY BEST. If that doesn't say something, then what does?

I attended this school several years ago and God delivered me from this cultish institution. When multiple people are writing reviews and are SCREAMING at you not to go here and you still do, don't blame us. We tried to tell you. Let me just say this - Jesus didn't come to earth with a rule book and force us all to live by certain rules in order to get closer to Him. He wasn't about that at all. The Pharisees were about that. And so is PCC.

Pensacola Christian College is character building and the
Pensacola Christian College is character building and the academics are tough. Because it is strict, students get more out of their college experience (no skipping classes, partying, or dating pressures). The fact that this college is not accredited may effect your future plans--research concerning that is recommended. I did have a problem with the nonaccredited status once with a state job, but the college helped out tremendously and sorted it all for me so that I kept my job.
