I graduated PBA in 2023 with a marketing degree. Poor leadership. Very poor teaching. The financial office has no idea what is going on. Charges showing up on my account they can’t even explain what it is but I still owe it. Christian environment is not nurturing. They never poured into me or counseled me in a Christ-like way. I am now full time ministry and see how poor of a witness the leadership was at PBA. I hate to leave such a terrible review but I do not wish anyone to have the experience... Read More I did.

This is a very disappointing experience. I had two parents that both went here. This school is not what it used to be. They used to take interest in the students and help them. Now, I have actually been set back academically. If you are a hard working and capable student, do not go here. They methods of communication are completely ineffective. You will be sent in circles just like a state university for the price of 2 to 3x more than a state university. On top of this, they will lie to you and say... Read More they had nothing to do with the basic trust lost between student and university. Air on the side of self preservation and find a different school. Who ever is in charge of each department and a school as a whole is ruining the school reputation. I could write more, but I do not see a point. I am surprised this school has reviews over 3 stars. Do not go here. This is a sincere review to try to help other future students.

If you are looking to further your education in Christianity and theology, as well as further personal religious growth, than I recommend this school. The Bible and Ministry program professors that I encountered were well educated, wise, and professional. However, this is not the case for most of the other programs offered at Palm Beach Atlantic University. The Music Department was unorganized, constantly fluctuating in professors... Read More employed, and lacked clear direction and professionalism. Professors often displayed personal agendas and opinions at the expense of education and professionalism. Requesting assistance through an adviser was almost impossible. I completed my degree with successfully meeting with my adviser only once, though I requested multiple times.

Some of the professors are alumni and therefore understand what a student may go through balancing school, family, and a full-time job. The school is also big on giving back to... Read More the community and therefore requires community service hours to be performed at a local non-profit agency of your choosing, stretching you to reach out to an agency that you have never worked with before, increasing your knowledge base with other organizations. The student population is very diverse ranging fun various ages, to various races, gender, work and life experiences, and varied faiths.

PBA is a small campus. I really liked it in my prerequisite time, but as in many small schools there are big cliques that you don't notice as much when you go to a big school. I enjoyed my experience with the friends I met, but unless you are part of a club called ILT or involved in a sports team you are nobody on that campus. Being a Christian university I thought things would be different, but the teachers still had their favorites they would do anything for and if you didn't kiss butt they didn't...
