Fresno Pacific is a quaint little university with the main campus just blocks away from the poorest parts of Fresno. Don't let that worry you though because the security is phenomenal! Despite being a private Christian University, the students here are very diverse. The on campus living is quiet (most of the time) but fun. FPU centers around community and involvement. The clubs and activities are numerous. When it comes to academics this school is top notch. The classroom sized vary. I have had classes with up to 25 students and classes as small as 7. The majority of the class sizes range between 12-22. The professors here are readily available and want to help their students succeed. This campus is small, but you are sure to see a new face almost everyday. Overall FPU is a good school, but if you do not have the scholarships or financial aide to come here with very few loans, you might want to consider going to a JC first.
FPU has changed my life
Fresno Pacific University is a welcoming campus that has a loving community. The minute I stepped onto the campus, I felt like I had found where I was meant to be. I appreciate the students, faculty, and donors who make Fresno Pacific what it is today.
The fall 2020 acceptance rate for Fresno Pacific University is 68%. That means, out of _____ applications received in 2020 , _____ students were offered admission. The number of males who applied was _____ vs the number of females which was _____.
There is a lot of advice that I would give my high school self. I would tell myself that it is important to create good time organization. Along with that I would tell myself that in college the professors expect more of you, so that means you have to really pay attention. You cannot expect to pass your classes; you really have to study for the test. It is important for you to be willing to share your stuff with others. When you live your roommates you will share your hair products, and anything else they need to use.
Fresno Pacific University is a widely diverse school.
The school is centered on Christian beliefs and values and it is very evident in it's course-load. There are Atheists and other religiously affiliated students but it can get uncomfortable to have your studies always be connected to the Christian religion. A person wanting to see liberalism in social issues or in politics is probably not fit for FPU. Also, people who are looking for frats/sororities and partying.
The best thing about my school would be the atmosphere. It is very quiet and very peaceful every single day.
Anyone who is serious about having an amazing learning experience in a Christian setting.
The worse thing about Fresno Pacific is the male to female ratio. There are like three girls to every guy on campus. Considering that that is the worst thing about FPU I guess I lucked out when it came to where I'm going for college.
Unselfish friendly and caring.
My school is known for its excellent Liberal studies programs. It is also known for its small class sizes, and that it is a Christian College.
It's small number of students.
i brag about the environment. Fresno Pacific is very peaceful and quiet during the day. The presence of God is so stron every where you go. one really cool thing that sets my school apart from other schools is the fact that we have over 30 countries represented on campus. we have students and faculty from all over the world. we also have cheap trips we take during the year to disneyland and the beach. all trips for fun are under $60 and some other trips for class are usually free. the school gives many scholarship opportunities for tuition/living.
I wish I knew more about how religious this college actually is compared to a public university. Being a private, christan university, they institute a lot of courses you have to take, that i personally don't feel benefit my major or what i want to do with my life. However, after freshman year, you get a lot more choices on the courses you need to take and what you want to do with your life.
The most frustrating thing would be trying to get everything situated financially as well as getting the extra general education classes that I have not taken yet. It is really hard to pay for school when not making very much money.
