What Students Are Saying

palau community college is such a wonderful opportunity for those who are not ready to study abroad. this institution, although very simple and in need of several resources is a one-of-a-kind school that offers students a lot more than one could imagine. overall, pcc is a great start for upcoming college students, as well as to prepare them (and myself) for the outside world.
