However, the specific number of undergraduate students is not provided. Therefore, an approximate range can be inferred based on the total enrollment and the proportion of graduate students, which is not detailed. Given the lack of precise information on the number of undergraduate students, it is difficult to provide an exact number.

I love how much help you have in campus, more than what you think you do get in a 4 year university, PCCC surpasses that which is why I transferred back from a 4 year university. I wish the internet connection was better, and the library had as much computers as it used to have back in 2018. But overall great campus! Glad to be back!

PCCC is a great school even though it is located in a crime infested area. PCCC's Public Safety is always around to see if everything is ok, and I've only seen one instance where their was a problem that the police had to get involved in the last three years that I've been at PCCC. PCCC feels like a family, everyone is helpful.

Absolutely awful school. Professors don't care, students don't care.
Overall 1.4
During my time here the administration was uninterested in doing anything other than offering the bare minimum for students. The only good thing I can say about the admin is that their apathy prevents them from hindering students. The only saving grace this school has is that an overwhelming amount of professors deeply care about students.
Overall 1.4
I hate this school with a damn passion. Stupid people who aren't friendly, corrupt teachers who don't know anything and just teach just for their paycheck, and the environment is a complete dump. The school is located in a city where crime is high and people are stupid.

The worse school ever. The school located in the middle of downtown where re the crack heads and drug dealers are. The social life sucks here. You will not meet new friends. The education here is mediocre. The advisors are misleading and will try to take your money. Please don't go here. You are better off at BCCC.
