PCC's rules are strict, but If you decideQuite BrightComputer Science
PCC's rules are strict, but If you decide ahead of time to obey them -- despite the fact that some of them are ridiculous -- you will have a wonderful educational experience. Whenever I've had a problem in class, the professors have gone out of their way to schedule time for me, and it is obvious that they genuinely care about your academic success.

Question
If you are a "normal" human being withoutBrightPreLaw and Legal
If you are a "normal" human being without strict conservative views (i.e. think all women should wear skirts type) PLEASE DO NOT go to this school!!! Do not let it's "cheapness" sway you! I did and it wasn't worth it. Yes, you will obtain a good education if you work really hard and never get sick; however, your spiritual, social, and mental life WILL suffer. I had some good times at PCC but would not recommend it to even people I don't like. I was a good student who worked hard, didn't get picked on (some students are watched very closely), had lots of great friends, was a "good" Christian girl who didn't challenge PCC's rules, and had under 25 demerits every semester. I felt like I was treated like a small child and learned nothing besides my book education to prepare me for life after college. To get a much better idea of what PCC will not tell you and what you will probably not learn even after a visit to the school, please visit www.pensacolachristiancollege.com. I discovered it after graduation and it's so true! Be sure to check out the "What you will not do at PCC" section. You will be surprised at the number of normal activities that are prohibited (and sometimes severely punished!) i.e. sitting or walking on the grass, listening to contemporary Christian music, wearing pants (ladies), playing musical instrument anywhere in dorm, etc.I am successfull in my career and display my degree so that I may warn all who ask not to go, not to send their children, and not to recommend it to friends. I regret with every ounce of my being that I had never attended PCC!

Question
Don't go here.Art & Design Department
Don't go here. Go to an art school. Even though an art school does not teach from a Christian perspective, You will get better training in your field and you will have more credibility with your employers.

PCC is oppressive and much like a gestapo-run nation. You are always watched, never trusted, never believed, and treated like a child. (I found this particularly insulting as I went to school after a was married and had a child. This didn't matter to them. Not even a 26 year old father who worked full time to support his family and put himself through school is able to make a responsible decision in there eyes) Don't go here. You will leave needing more help than when you started.
