Prescott College Reviews

"Once a great school, PC has deteriorated into a third rate, collegiate money making machine. The adjuncts are overworked and underpaid while the administration rakes in the money. The education is lackluster, an understatement at best. It’s a shame. Don’t go here, maybe they will learn. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere for a decent education."

"Prescott College offers a unique college experience. Undergraduate programs at Prescott College are designed similarly to most graduate programs at other schools. Class sizes are small and emphasis is put on discussion and projects rather than tests and grades. The college offers incredible opportunities to study in Kino Bay, Mexico and in Kenya. This school is ideal for a student who is seeking a small college experience with outstanding faculty, particularly in the fields of education, environmental studies, psychology and counseling, and social justice.Read Less"

"The Master of Science in Counseling at Prescott College is quite exceptional for several reasons. Firstly, the college offers a low-residency option, which means that you can complete the degree from home, in almost any state in the country, while still maintaining your job or other responsibilities. If the state that you live in has specific requirements for your counseling education, Prescott College works with you personally and professionally to guarantee that you will be able to meet the requirements that you need. Secondly, the program is quite customizeable. Each student is able to take courses at their own pace in order to create the degree that works best for their own needs. Thirdly, the faculty and staff in this program show incredible individual attention and mentoring to their students. Each person within the department knows each student by name, and truly seeks to further their education and professional success. As a student, I felt that my own needs and concerns were heard and addressed by the appropriate people in the college to ensure my own success. Prescott College feels very much like a family. I would highly recommend attending Prescott College for their M.S. in CounselingRead Less"

"Prescott College's Masters of Science in Counseling is a fantastic limited-residency online program. This program is one of a kind in that it is self-directed and offers counseling concentrations such as Adventure-Based Psychotherapy, Equine, Ecopsychology, and Art Therapy. What is unique about this program is it allows for flexibility for you to fit it in to your life as you see fit. You can also be anywhere you want to be and still working on yourself and your education with Prescott College. I highly recommend this program for the independent, self-motivating, and hardworking individual.Read Less"

"Prescott College is a college that is personally involved in the success of their students as they progress towards graduation. The professors, mentors, and teaching staff are very approachable and want students to succeed. Prescott College encourages, if not requires, that students be involved in social justice activism in order to make the biggest impact on the world. Prescott College offers a variety of degree plans that will make it possible to achieve what you want when you want. I would not have been able to pursue Expressive Arts Therapy if Prescott College did not offer distance learning. While I do the majority of my learning online, I am still very much a part of campus life with colloquiums offered three times a year and a two week Expressive Arts Therapy Summer Institute that correlates with the classes that I have taken or am currently taking.Read Less"

"I participated in Prescott College's Limited Residency Bachelor's Program majoring in Human Development. Prescott has some of the most supportive staff members I have ever experienced at a college and were very hands-on and helpful along the way. I had attended numerous other colleges before trying Prescott and many of my courses from my previous schools were able to be transferred in helping me continue on my way towards my Bachelor's."

"I never quite understood thriving in a school setting until my attendance at Prescott College. I have the capacity to individualize and design my projects for program from start to finish as well as have a supportive learning community along the way!"

"Prescott College provides an outstanding education for counseling, as well as many other undergraduate and graduate programs, with special interests in environmental and social justice studies. In addition, Prescott College offers a wide range of specialization in the counseling program that enhances the education and profession/practice."
