Not only am I learning more than I ever did at a Charter high school (which is a school that focuses on academics), but I'm learning how to think and how to question.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
My closest friends have become my family away from home. I just finished my freshman year and cannot wait until fall finally comes so that I can go back! The campus is small, but beautiful! There are many different opportunities available; some are harder to find than others. For example, student senate, Remnant (drama ministry), puppet ministry, handbell choir, intramural sports, an outdoor club, as well as various youth groups that you can help with off-campus.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
I have definitely gotten my money's worth out of this year. If you are willing to put forth the effort, you will too.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Pray about it. I've heard many stories in addition to my own about students who had PBU lower on their list of preferred colleges, but it somehow ended up at the top. The only reason we have is that God wants us here.
Look into the different programs! WWC and BI are both great programs that I did not get to participate in, unfortunately. The BI (Bible and Israel) program is a one year program that intensely studies only the Bible and Israel. Then they go to Israel for two weeks!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Christians wanting to study the Bible, to engage the world around them, and to grow spiritually.
