REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingThis 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.
Kimberly from Pace, FL
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.

Pensacola State College is a small and fun school. There's always lots of things going on around campus and you get that one-on-one attention from your teachers.
Mallory from Gulf Breeze, FL
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!
Hannah from Pensacola, FL
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.
