I am currently in the PSU Post-Bacc program. I like the program and the professors are wonderful. My experience might not be typical since most of my time in the program has been spent during Covid, and therefore online. I did complete one term in-person.
I will be starting the Masters program at Pacific in the fall and so far I have been impressed with all the professors and staff associated with the program.
I haven't done the commutes so I can't really comment on that. The cost difference between the two programs is significant and I would fully look in to that before attending.
