I am currently a transfer freshman studying Emergency Medicine at PCT. My experience has been very positive. I live in an apartment close to campus. Being at PCT truly is a great College because they offer so many different majors for real world jobs. I am studying to become a paramedic, but I know students who are becoming mechanics, construction management, nursing, radiology, and many more. This school offers so much!

Honestly would have never had the opportunities I had anywhere else. With my major the largest in the nation make the trip to penn college from all over the US to pick out guys up. Before my senior year I had 3 job offers from the largest home builders in the nation. I ended up taking my offer with Ryan Homes and I am now climbing the ladder to success along with the 4 other penn college grads in my division. Along with the job placement the education, social life, and athletics were all big contributions to the Best college experience. Thanks PCT, highly recommend this school!!
Things I really like about my college is the information I have learned from my teachers about Diesel mechanics. The teachers, advisors, support personnel, and the Dean are all very personal and supportive to you. There are so many places to eat, entertainment, and stores within walking distance. There is security which made my parents fell safe about me being there. I have met a lot of people and have really enjoyed my college life at Penn Tech. I would recommend anyone to go there.
