PBAU has its problems, but I will assure you the problems at other universities are far greater. What amazes me is the amount of hatred that is on the internet about this school. The college has a fine mission statement (more complete than most schools) and I don't care what any one says I admire the morals this school holds. I have been going here for four years now and I love it.

The master's program was relevant to my job. The school delivered on its promises. The faculty are terrific and I still keep in touch with many of them. Ditto the other students. Overall, I was satisfied.

The pharmacy program originally charged $18,500 for tuition during my 1st professional year of pharmacy school. The tuition has gone up 10% each year as has the cost of living in West Palm Beach. We do not see where our money is going as they charge us extra for EVERYTHING! We cannot print for free, we are charged random "access fees" for services no one (after 3 years) can identify, the server goes down weekly so we lose access to the website and our email accounts....the list goes on.

The most unbelievable part of the pharmacy school is that we have a new dean this year who has either 1) fired a handful of our faculty or 2) scared them out of the school because at least 5 of them have fled the school. He also does not interact with the students, nor does his wife who has conveniently taken the position of assistant dean. The faculty and staff are extremely secretive about new "policies" that are going to be implemented in the school. Basically, the school has VERY HIGH turnover rates so anyone who has a background in business knows that that raises a very big RED FLAG!

I do NOT recommend this university for any future pharmacy students as it is definitely not worth your money or time!
