Not accredited, very few qualified (academically) teachers, and very legalistic in rules. Also for someone at the graduate level, the college tends to treat you at the high school level. My advice is that you should look and compare. I received a very good education and have an excellent job. And for the record I graduated near the top of the class at PCC, completed in four years, less than 30 demerits each semester, and proceeded to complete an MBA at one of the top universities in the US. The only reason I could attend this MBA program was that my non accredited undergraduate was waived due to my work experience (over 15 years), my company’s standing with the university ($$$), and the executive position I hold within the company. Else, I was told my degree would have not bee accepted.

I do not agree with some people on this web site that thinks everyone's negative opinion is the result of a bad attitude. That kind of thought only demonstrates the rationale behind many of the negative posts. Be informed, read the posts, use your mind, be an adult and learn.

And finally, contrary to one posting, you are not given a list of rules prior to going to the college (unless you go to an underground web site that has the handbook posted.) Yes, you are given a general list of standards, expectations and guidelines, but I in no way expected what I found when I arrived.

For undergraduate students, I think PCC’s heart is in the right place, but you will miss the maturation process. I will hire someone from PCC, but only after a long discussion concerning their growth and maturity, and for the record, we have not hired anyone from PCC. Young people are not perfect. There is room for error, thank God. PCC however, does not give much room for error. Trying to build a catch-all error proof legal system is not the answer.

If God leads you to PCC then go! If you do not get the leading, I would encourage open thinking and look at your long term goals, not just getting the degree at a low cost.

Hi. I'm a South Korean and my sister and I are looking for Christian colleges that are affordable. So we're deciding whether we should go to PPC or not? Because we are Christians and we got to know PPC from a missionary. So is PPC a good to attend to?
