It has a nice little campus in downtown WPB. They make you wear a Jesus fish on your white coat. It's probably expensive but I'm not sure. Definitely not for me. I wasn't too impressed with any of the students I saw from there, but I could just be a jerk.
Edit: Tuition alone for PBA adds up to $144k, not including supplies, housing, living expenses.
Nova clocks in at $122k, UF is about $105k (latest tuition isn't on their website.
Be smart and go to the most affordable, reputable school you can. An overly expensive private school of dubious quality wouldn't be my first choice unless your parents are paying for it. If that's the case, go to PBA and rent a nice condo somewhere between school and Clematis. The Prado is pretty centrally located.

Do you believe that reputability actually is a factor? I heard that it's not like law and med school and that employers will just look at if you have a license. Also, I was thinking about doing a residency.

I've seen a mix of high quality and average students come from PBA. I would probably rank them underneath UF and somewhat equivalent to the rest of the FL schools.
Do you know anything about the school itself and the experience?
What about competition for IPPEs and APPES with students from Nova Southeastern University's Palm Beach Gardens campus?
They are only 13.1 miles apart from each other.
I had enough trouble getting rotations at my school, and the closest other pharmacy school was 72.5 miles away.
