Current State of HAC

[DrHuk&Duck]

I hear you!

My daughter was able to take advantage of my Hazelwood benefits for Texas veterans. It pays tuition and fees at any Junior College and Texas State University. She went to Junior College for a few semesters and then transferred over to Stephen F Austin State University to complete her degree in Communications. Her mother was living up in Nacogdoches at the time so she stayed with her which saved a good bit of money. She ended up alright with a good head on her shoulders. The "Woke Worms" didn't eat into her brains too badly and we got most things sorted out now.

I would avoid debt at all cost! If you did have to finance anything, I'd strongly recommend a vocational or technical school where your daughter could first attain marketable skills that would get her hired and then take advantage of the "tuition reimbursment" programs that many employers offer these days. Seems to me she could get her LVN or even a CNA and get hired by a large hospital or medical group and from there, continue on with a BSN/RN. Something to think about anyway.

PCC is a little different though. Colleges like HAC and WCBC are strictly "Bible Colleges" specifically intended for ministry or Christian education and has little to no value outside of their "IFB World." PCC is actually a "Christian University" now offering degrees for secular occupations plus they are accredited as well.

Glad your kids could use your vet benefits. I didn’t realize that was possible unless the vet was deceased or something similar. That’s good to know for my sister’s kids down the road.

I agree about PCC. I have a few questions about PCC, but I’ll place those in the PCC forum. Not sure if anyone on here went to PCC or not, but it’s worth a try.

This is just my thoughts if I were going to college I would attend PCC or Liberty . You are going to do well .

I was stationed in Pensacola in the Navy and attended the Campus Church while I was part of the Missions to Military outreach on the bases.

I was not an enrolled student but I was very involved with much of the ministry going on there. I worked closely with Jim Schettler while he was youth pastor... Dr. A.A. Baker was my Sunday school teacher... I personally knew and was known of by Dr. Horton. So, I'd say I was about as familiar as a non-student could be with that institution.

The outreach of both PCC and MTM, (not a PCC ministry but endorsed by them at the time) was very foundational for me as a new believer and much of what I am today comes from what I learned there.
