<p>Which has the best program?? This is my deciding factor, and if anybody knows anything it would be of great help! Maybe rankings or websites to direct me, thank you!</p>
<p>Well, I know this doesn’t tell you much about the econ programs, but PU has a higher rank (56) than the other two I believe. For most economic jobs, I would think that Pepperdine would be seen in a more favorable light when you start your job hunt. Plus, the alumni network is larger I believe.</p>
<p>Chapman isn’t ranked as a national university. It’s ranked 10th in its category, universities that offer up to a masters degree. I would still argue that Pepperdine offers, by far, the best education. I know Chapman has strong business programs, but I don’t know about economics. I don’t know much about LMU’s programs. I think Pepperdine’s your best bet.</p>
<p>Also, U.S. News assigns colleges both a rank and a score, here they are:</p>
<p>LMU: Universities- Masters (West)
Rank- 4
Score- 78</p>
<p>Chapman: Universities- Masters (West)
Rank- 10
Score- 66</p>
<p>Pepp: National Universities
Rank- 56
Score- 52</p>
