The campus is absolutely beautiful, even the bathrooms are super nice! There is an excess of study rooms in the Cooper building that provide quiet areas for schoolwork. The campus is very advanced with its technology. Overall, I am very, very happy to be a student here.

The new campus is really nice and has a ton of spaces for students to study. There is always a ton to do when it comes to social events and activities. There is really only one club, which is SNAP, but besides that PA College is a really nice college. All of the staff is extremely nice and wants you to succeed.

This school is very advanced technologically and is an excellent school for health sciences. It is very tough and you must work hard.
Bad reviews
Overall 1.5
A great disappointment. Organization and communication between instructors including the administration is poor. Constant change in protocols and schedules. Goal of institution is to increase their finances. Teacher protocol is to give students everything they need to teach themselves. Some teachers don't even like teaching. Facility doesn't care!!
Overall 1.5
Too much money for the quality of the education you receive. The professors suck for the size of the school and the amount you pay. To do well, plan on not having a family, or job, or a life, Worst decision of my life to attend lancaster general.

It needs a lot of improvement.

Bad location in the city. Crappy student parking. More concerned on taking your money. Go to a community college first then come here for your program.
Overall 1.6
DO not waste your money on this place. You will regret it.

PA College has a number of very knowledgeable instructors who have a lot of experience in their respective fields.
However, the institution itself is still grossly disorganized and astonishingly expensive.
If you must go here, do your (or your parents’) wallet a favor and at least take your Gen Eds at HACC.
