 " Pepperdine University is a great school if you are looking for professors who care and have the knowledge to guide and mentor you. The students at Pepperdine are typically kind, but it may be difficult to make any real connections. One bonus is you NEVER have to worry about your things getting stolen. Students leave laptops, backpacks, wallets, and more in the library, the grass, and other areas, but I have never heard of one single incident of theft. I was also one of those people who left their items out. One positive and negative is the issue. First of all,  you can walk to the beach any day. However, to have a social life, you need a car or need to Uber everywhere since Malibu is a little isolated. I HIGHLY recommend taking a year abroad. A lot of students at Pepperdine are encouraged to do so and the programs are amazing! I am biased so I really recommend the Buenos Aires Program. "

 " It's a great university, malibu campus is beautiful. The FEMBA program is great but not worth the high price you have to pay to attend.  If you received a bachelor's degree in business, it's expanding on your prev knowledge but not building. "

 " Pepperdine is a great college, i'm thankful I spent the last four years at this college! The location doesn't get better than Malibu and everyone is so kind on campus. The parking situation is terrible though and the food could be better. I also wish Malibu wasn't so isolated from the rest of LA or santa monica otherwise the social scene would be top tier "

 " Overall a good option for working professionals. Students are helpful and work together. Online class options are very helpful and allow greater flexibility to schedule classes. Hybrid classes are also available and attendance in person is once every two weeks which works out pretty well. "

 " Pepperdine has changed my life! I wasn't sure if Pepperdine was going to be a good fit, but it turned out to be amazing! It has a beautiful campus, and academics are top-notch. The community here is some of the best I've ever seen, and the people are impeccable. Classes are small and you will definitely make great connections. "
