President’s Message
Welcome to Pensacola State College! In today’s world, a college education can make an enormous difference in your career opportunities and earning power. A recent national study shows that over a lifetime, the average college graduate earns at least $800,000 more than the average high school graduate.
Clearly, education is one of the best investments you can make. Pensacola State provides top-quality programs and instruction that you need – at an affordable cost – so that you can make the most of your investment. In fact, the U.S. Department of Education consistently ranks PSC as a best value in education, listing the college in the top one percent for affordable tuition.
With more than 120 programs to choose from, you can easily find an educational or career path that fits your interests. Our small classes, widely respected faculty, student support services and high-tech facilities combine to prepare you to compete with the best.
At PSC, we feel that your college investment should also include opportunities to learn beyond the classroom. We have more than 50 student clubs and organizations that welcome your participation. So, take advantage of this time to broaden your horizons, meet friends, develop leadership skills, volunteer for service projects, take in Lyceum events, and of course, cheer on the Pirates!
As the area’s oldest college, we at Pensacola State are proud of our growth since we first opened our doors in 1948. Currently, we serve about 26,000 students annually in six locations. We offer day and evening classes, as well as an array of online programs, to accommodate our students’ busy schedules.
Most of all, we are committed to remaining a student-centered college with an unwavering commitment to be accessible on many levels, from adult basic education to career training, to associate and baccalaureate degrees.
We are delighted that you have chosen Pensacola State College and we are confident that your educational investment with us will yield returns for a successful future.
Sincerely,
Edward Meadows
