Pacific Union College Reviews
1 Review Submitted For Pacific Union College
- Reviewed on: April 20, 2012
Flag Review - Rating:
- The campus is in a beautiful setting, but it is remote and there isn't much to do if you don't have a car. I didn't find the courses as challenging as I thought, so I'm not sure this was the best choice for me, because I'm pretty sure I'm missing out on stuff.
