    Am learning a lot

    This is a great college to go to if you are from this area and want to stay home. It's not as expensive as most colleges and the teachers are really nice, and the class times work around your schedule. They have a big selection of degrees and classes and the teachers always try their best to make sure you understand what their teaching you. This is defiantly the college to go to.
    Am enjoying being here

    The people that go here are really nice and they always have an event for students going on somewhere. They they are near a viarity of places to eat for lunch since it's near Cordova Mall.
    Bang for the buck

    They are not as expensive as UWF and you still have a variety of classes to choose from
    Tips for prospective students

    Study alot and make sure you understand what the teacher is telling you.

    Go to ratemyprofessors.com. It's a great website to see what your teachers are like, before you even get to class. Having a teacher that fits your type of teaching will make your classes go a whole lot smoother.
    Am enjoying being here

    Try to get a lot of scholarships when you go to college. I spent a lot of my time working, because I had to pay for school. I didn't really get a chance to do any extracurricular activities. I didn't really make any new friends or get to really check out the school. I'm pretty sure I would have loved being on campus if I didn't always have to work the night shift. I remember one time I got free ice cream just for having my student id card.
    Bang for the buck

    Education is always worth your money. Just remember, it will pay off in the long run!
    Tips for prospective students

    Try very hard not to work and go to school at the same time. If you decide on transferring into a program, the school is not going to look at how many hours you worked but at how your grades are. It's very important to have good grades. A lot of scholarships are based on your GPA. It would be shame to not enter a scholarship because your GPA does not qualify. Study hard all during the week, and have some fun on the weekends. Don't forget your long term goals if you decide to go to a junior college.
    Great for these types of students

    I love school! I just wished I would have had more time to study. Scholarships really help. The worst that can happen is not getting awarded the money. Millions of dollars in scholarships are not awarded every year just because people didn't apply.

    Am learning a lot

    I am going into my third semester at Pensacola State College (Pensacola Junior College), and I have to say I really am learning a lot from the classes I have taken so far. There are many interesting classes to choose from and the instructors that I have had are very friendly, not to mention they have awesome lectures!
    Am enjoying being here

    I wasn't ready to move out and go to a big university right after high school, but PSC was a great transition surprisingly! The students are friendly, the staff and instructors are friendly as well. Pensacola State College has many classes to choose from too depending on which of the three campuses you go to.
    Bang for the buck

    The prices for tuition are reasonable for the small size, but every college is expensive. The bookstores have good deals sometimes on the books, but not always. If you want to succeed though, it's worth the money I guess.
    Tips for prospective students

    My first piece of advice for prospective students would be to definitely look into the prices first! It might not be as expensive as a four year University but it's still a lot of money. Secondly, go talk to one of the counselors to look at the courses and degrees available.
    Great for these types of students

    Pensacola State College has every type of student imaginable, but everyone sticks to people they are comfortable with. There are only a few Bachelor degree programs since they just changed to a four year school, but there are many good A.A.'s available. You will know if PSC is the right school for you if you are motivated, devoted and enjoy being in a smaller school.

    Am learning a lot

    The educational experience is like any other and you get the best bang for your buck! Classes are smaller and most of the teachers are very approachable and will take time to review information.
    Am enjoying being here

    The warrington campus is where all of the health professions are held. The facilities are satisfactory and the internship opportunities are boundless. Teachers are amazing.
    Bang for the buck

    Way cheaper than UWF or even technical schools in the area. Make sure you get in-state rate though because the per credit hour price difference can cost you a $400 difference every term!!! A huge difference in price, but if you are eligible for Florida-state-tuition than this school is definitely the smartest and cheapest choice for a well-rounded college education!
    Tips for prospective students

    Please make sure to have all your financial aid forms filled out and ready. If you don't have an appointment with financial aid arrive during their empty hours, 8am-11am so you won't have to wait to long. Remember always to check you spyglass account to see if any financial aid information has been updated. (AND ALWAYS MAKE COPIES).
    Great for these types of students

    Remember to register fast because PSC courses are not only cheap, but very popular since several UWF students take courses at PSC that are transferable and cheaper for their own degrees!!! So register early and make sure to pay courses by deadline or else you will be administratively removed for unpaid courses by the due date of funds.

    The online classes available make it easy for students who work full time. The instructors - professors and adjuncts alike - are approachable and dedicated to the student's success. A small town college with a big heart, Pensacola State College is a compassionate institution.
    Tips for prospective students

    If you are going to college, then act like an adult; check your attitude at the door. Do the work that is assigned to you in a timely fashion and don't make excuses for lack of initiative. Help one another.
    Food and Dining

    Drink machines are sporadic. Geedunks can be bought at the bookstore.
    What to do for fun

    Pensacola is a gulf coast community with plenty of sunshine so a day at the beach is a relaxing way to destress from class. Art and food festivals are common fare. Watch the Blue Angels practice sessions for free at the National Naval Aviation Museum.
    Great for these types of students

    Technical,vocational, and nursing students love Pensacola State.

    Pensacola State College is a very personal and inviting environment. The staff is extremely helpful and are willing to work with you. The education level at this institution is by far up to par.
    Tips for prospective students

    This college has a lot to offer to every student. I highly recommend signing up for classes as soon as possible to avoid schedule problems, classes fill quickly. Also make sure the classes you need for your major are at your selected campus, the smaller campus often does not have certain specific speciality classes.
    Academic Rigor

    The challenges in this campus academically is the lack of professor availability. Teachers at Pensacola State College often teach at many campuses so they are often hard to find personally. However, if you email them or call their offices they do not hesitate to answer any questions you have. The amount of resources at this campus is amazing and very helpful. Between the library on campus and the online helpful hints website links, students can get everything they need and all their questions answered quickly.
    Dorm Life

    There are no dorms at this college, however this would complete this college as a major state college.
    Food and Dining

    There is just a small snack store in the Milton Campus I attend. However, the staff often have some sort of bake sale or barbecue offering many different options for the students.
    What to do for fun

    Pensacola State College has many different extracurricular activities to offer a variety of students. The dance and cheer teams are phenomenal and are great entertainment. If sports is what you are interested in, the sports teams at this school are wonderful! There are also plenty of clubs offered such as the Frisbee golf and ethic/philosophy club.
    Bang for the buck

    This campus is great especially for the price! This is the second campus I have attended, and this one is smaller yet the best out of the two. The classes and books are very reasonably priced.
    Great for these types of students

    This college is great for students who love the small campuses with down to earth, fun teachers. The environment at PSC is very relaxed and completely focused on information without acting like a military institution.
    Clubs and Activities

    As I stated previously, there are many clubs throughout the three campuses of PSC. The variety is extremely wide. This school also offers many student days to relieve school stress and even just for fun. PSC hosts many fundraisers such as Do Not Text and Drive.
    Campus Safety

    There is constant patrol throughout the campus. Cameras have been placed to prevent any type of trouble on campus. The parking lots are highly monitored creating a very safe environment for students and professors.

    I would have to say that PSC is a 7.5 on a scale from one to ten. the reason for my anwer is their organization problems, and the fact that all students are not treated as equally.
