Pensacola Christian College

If you are going for a nursing major, PCC will help you to prepare to be the best you can be. The competiveness is very strenuous curing the freshmen year, as their are around 400 pre-nursing majors trying to get into the program that has only 120 slots for the nursing program beginning in the sophomore year. Campus social life for a nursing major must be very restricted, in order to dedicate to the intense studying, so if you are a serious student, you will be glad for the limited time off campus, so that you can dedicate to your studies. If you are the studious, serious type who is use to a close knit family environment, you will be comfortable in dorm life, as it provides a safe environment. There are plenty of extracurricular activities if you enjoy sports and making friends in the commons and in the sports center. If you love hanging out in the library and are a serious student, you will not have time to get in trouble. Just be sure to read the handbook, and get a close upperclassmen friend, who can clue you into all the rules, so you don,t make waves.

If you are the kind of teenager who feels that you are an adult and you can be responsible for your behavior, you will have no problems with the rules... Treat the rules as you would the 'safety belt' law, 'buckle up' or ticket. We wear safety belts at all times to avoid the ever present dangers of accidents on the road. We have rules at a Christian campus to avoid the ever present destructive dangers of unrestrained human nature. The tickets or demerits are there to restrain those that can not restrain themselves.... yes, some rules like 'do not walk on the grass' make be ticketed with demerits, deal with it. There are reasons they don't want the mud paths through their beautifully manicured lawns. Once you graduate with your RN, you will see alot more rules in the hospital institution. Do you want your surgeon to avoid the sterile glove rule when you have surgery because he thought it was too restraining?? The patients will be glad that you learned to put others first before your own selfish wants.

The best education for the cheapest price. Yes, you have to put up with alot you will not like. However, your fellow students all have to follow the same rules. It is like boot camp and I am proud to be one of the people that had the discipline to finish. I was prepared for my profession and recieved many complements about my maturity in my profession.
