PCC is not where you want to go if you want a good education that will help you in "the real world." They do not have qualified teaching staff, in fact most of the staff are hired from with-in the school as soon as they graduate, and should not be teaching at the graduate level. PCC does not believe in working on technique, but instead a phony communication that will not reach anyone. In my graduate classes I never felt challenged, and instead felt like I reviewed my last four years of undergrad work without adding to it. For people who do not want to make a career of singing in church "ensemble style" or teaching, I would not recomment PCC for a performing arts degree. Students do not receive enough lesson time, and do not get the training in vocal technique that is given at other universities. Also, if you are wanting to go to another university after you graduate from PCC, it is very difficult to get in without first redoing your undergraduate work because PCC is unaccredited.
