My adoptive father told me he went here and I am going to be a successful preacher, successful christian rapper, college professor at Harvard, and a successful business owner/entrepreneur, also whatever else god wants for me to do. So I feel like this would be a great place to make this happen, and I would be able to see one of my favorite preacher and volunteer at his church, pastor T.D. Jakes. I appreciate your time have a blessed day and be safe.

There is barely to no review for this insitution, so let me be the one to tell about this school. Paul Quinn College has only a couple of sports, very small, you will get fined everything, has a dresscode, religious based, need to go to chapel evry friend morning, most teachers are annoying. But, listen as a quinnite nation we are a family. We always stick together and unite as one. We might be all of these so called annoying things; however if we can look past them, I know you can. Now, let me tell you what I love about this beloved institution. Paul Quinn College is the first and only urban work college, we are diverse, and we are enriched with the intelligence from the Lord. Consider this school for the next semester you will NOT regret it!
