Choosing to attend PBA was the best decision I ever made!! The campus is beautiful and the faculty and students are genuinely friendly. I am finishing up my freshman year, already I have grown so much in my education and leadership abilities.I feel more prepared for grad school and success in my career later on then if I would have gone anywhere else. PBA is really worth looking into and visiting!

The school is all around okay. Some people really enjoy their time , however many do not. There tends to be a decent amount of homeschooled kids which seems to make the campus feel like an extended highschool. Although, there is a bunch of weird people here, there are a lot of cool, chill, "lotta fun" kids. Ultimately, it depends on the "group" you mostly involve yourself in. The town is great! I love the area because of the many things that are going on. Freshman becareful though cause they can be kind of strict on the curfew depending on your RA. The teachers are great to work with and are willing to go out of their way for you. If you go to class, converse with them, and try hard the teachers will write great letters of recommendations and offer you leadership positions. Don't come here for the beach expecting nothing but partying and girls because it isn't great. If you want that go to UF or some big school. Hope it helps and good luck with your decision!

I warn you: Do not enroll as a young student at PBAU. My stint at this post secondary institution was a harrowing experience. Ill start out on a positive note by injecting the delighful aspects of this university: the location, the beautiful surroundings, and the few incredible individuals that walk the campus. Everything from the food to the classes were overpriced. Financial aid is unempathetic. Adminstration is disorganized and pretentious. I had an overwhelming, gossipy, and high strung roommate who made my stay close to a living hell. When she finally moved out, my sleeping arrangement went a lot smoother. After that fall semester, I could no longer attend because the cost was too much. Today, I recieved a bill in the thousands that I reportedly owe this school although I only attended one semester which I paid for through grant, scholarships, and loans. Please save yourself the headache, cost, and ennui of attending PBAU unless its a divine calling from the God of Issac, Abraham, and Jacob. The education provided does not justify the cost.
