Palm Beach State College Reviews
Rating 3.82 out of 5 3,275 reviews
Palm Beach State College is a well-rounded state college that offers a diverse range of academic programs at an affordable cost. The faculty are knowledgeable and committed to student success, providing personalized support. While I believe the campus could use some upgrades in certain areas of its facilities, the overall educational experience is excellent. I appreciated the convenience of multiple campus locations throughout the county. Overall, I would highly recommend PBSC as a wonderful option for students in the Palm Beach area.
This community college receives a rating of 1 out of 5. Its facilities are outdated, with limited resources and equipment. The academic programs lack depth and relevance to current industry needs. Faculty engagement is minimal, resulting in a lack of support and guidance for students. Overall, it falls short in providing a quality educational experience and preparing students for their future careers.
Professor takes time to get to know students and guide them to the right carrier pathway. I never felt indifferent about being there, I could be myself. One thing as a student perspective I would like to see change is student activities. It should be a students day where we all gather together to get to know each other , for example a school day. Where there are activities, music, food, and stands for mental health, etc. overall the school is amazing.
