What’s Your
Next Step?
Your next big step
will start you on
a path,
a journey,
an adventure.
Start here
Take the next step
that will bring you
closer
to God.
Hear truths in a 30-minute chapel message that
will stick with you for the next 30 years. (It’s
what a lot of alumni say they miss the most.)
Find yourself thinking, “I never realized that!”
in Bible classes each semester—starting with
Old and New Testament surveys and a course
on biblical creationism. Make it a habit to pray
for others with prayer groups that meet during
the week.
You walk with God one step at a time, one day at
a time. Make it easier to take those right steps
every day, starting in college.
Hearing a challenge from
God’s Word in chapel
Junior class project, cleaning
up Hollice T. Williams Park in
downtown Pensacola
Take the next step
that will make you
committed
to serve Christ.
People are waiting for you to share Christ’s love. Children,
teens, adults, and the elderly—they all need Christ. You
can be the one to reach them.
Tell children about the gift of salvation in Bible club or see
their huge smiles when you help with the puppet ministry.
Show troubled teens how much God still loves them with
Christian Service groups to the Juvenile Justice Center.
Visit nursing home residents and give encouragement and
love that makes them feel that they are not forgotten.
You never know how much taking even a few hours to serve
can change an eternity. And at PCC, you don’t have to go
alone or struggle to find the type of ministry you’re best at.
You’ll have over 70 different types of ministry opportunities.
Are you ready?
Take the next step
that will make you
ready
to begin your career.
Do you know your calling? Even if you don’t, you can get
an education that helps you find it, then prepares you to
follow it.
Learn from dedicated, supportive Christian faculty
who see teaching as their ministry. Grow academically
in an atmosphere that points you to Christ. Accomplish
things you never thought you could, no matter your field.
You could treat real patients as a nursing student, create
a campaign as an advertising major, or teach in an elementary or high school classroom for a semester as an
education major.
You have 55 majors and 32 minors to choose from, but
your degree won’t be the real prize. Your real prize will be
leaving college prepared for what’s next.

graduating without debt
Take the next step
that will make you
able
to start your life
without college debt.
Imagine paying off student loans every month for 21 years
after college graduation. (U.S. News and World Report says
that’s how long it takes for the average graduate with a
bachelor’s degree.1)
Now imagine never having to make a single student loan
payment ever. Think of being done paying for college weeks
before you even graduate.
Over 75% of PCC alumni know what that’s like. Tuition, room
and board here is only $4,378/semester, whether you come
from Florida or across the country. Then there’s an offer for
free tuition, room and board your fourth year2 and available
on-campus work and scholarships.

Take the next step
that will give you
memories
you’ll never want to forget.
When you dive into college life, you’ll discover the great times
waiting for you.
Lose your voice cheering for your team. Or hear the audience’s
laughter and know tonight’s performance will be the best yet.
You might make a lifelong friend in your first class.
There’s always something going on around campus—concerts,
recitals, competitions, games, performances, portfolio readings,
and even indoor rock climbing and surfing.
What about off campus? You can watch dolphins glide through
the water right next to your boat on an outing, tour a local alligator farm, canoe along the Blackwater River, explore historic
downtown Pensacola, or go to a restaurant with an ocean view.
Missions Run 2015,
a student-organized 5K

Enjoying friendship and
good weather while
studying global business
Take the next step
that will give you
friendships
that make you better.
For the best friendships, start with the best foundation: Christ.
You can find friends at PCC who’ll make things like grabbing
a coffee at the Common Grounds Café, studying for a test, or
going to the beach more fun.
But more than that, you can find friends who’ll encourage and
challenge you, who’ll help you up if you fall—even if it’s just off
a paddleboard at West Campus.
What’s West Campus? It’s PCC property on Perdido Bay where
you can go to kayak, sail, picnic, or, of course, paddleboard.
