Palm Beach Atlantic University has beautiful facilities especially the music and fine arts building, the sports and recreation building, the cafeteria, and the pharmacy building. The class sizes are small which allows for more personal attention and further one on one meetings with professors. I especially love this because you get to know the professors on a personal level and they genuinely care for each student.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
I recommend getting involved with on campus activities. This helps you get connected quickly with students that have similar interests as you. Don't be afraid to get to know the upperclassmen; they can really help you get connected, too!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Some classes are more rigorous than others and it depends on the teacher. My first year my roommate and I were taking the same Exploring the Bible class but with different teachers. I had a very difficult professor and she had an easy going laid back teacher. Needless to say, we had different amounts of homework and studying.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Choose to live in Baxter Hall for your first semester. It is very friendly and a great freshman dorm because you meet so many people.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The caf has good food and many options. I'm a vegetarian and I found it very easy to find healthy and tasty options. The downside of being on the meal plan is it is very expensive.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
PBA is located in the city so there is an endless supply of fun things to do. Sailfish Programs and Student Success put on fun activities for students throughout each semester. Go to the dances!!
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
PBA is an open campus so anyone can walk through at any moment and you won't know them. There is theft and I never walk alone at night. Campus Safety and Security does a good job with keeping the campus safe.
