Academics

Pacific University is very rigorous. In every class, I feel challenged and pushed in different ways. It can be difficult at times, but I know in the end I will come out of Pacific with a broader knowledge and specific skills to help me in my career. It is very important that you are on top of your studies here. If you slack off, then doing well is very hard.

I hear it's very high.

I can't compare Pacific's classes to other colleges, haven't never attended any other, but I can say for certain that the learning opportunities offered by the school are diverse and engaging. In my experience within the English Department, at least, no two professors share too-similar teaching styles--there is a lot of diversity within the way they go about things, which allows for Pacific students to learn about and look at similar topics from vastly different perspectives.

pacific is a school that seems difficult to most. it demands success. let's face it, you would't pay around 45k to not be successful in your college career, and that's that way that pacific treats you. they treat you like a student that is there to learn and become someone very important in today's society.
