<p>Since you can transfer at most 12 units doesn't that mean that all transfer students will have to start over as freshman?</p>
<p>no, plenty of students transfer in with sophomore and junior standing</p>
<p>The page you linked to is regarding students who are already enrolled at Pepperdine taking courses at other schools. Some students will take language or other GEs at cheaper schools over the summer, and transfer those units to Pepperdine to save money. In that case, you’re limited on how many units you can take elsewhere.</p>
<p>Transferring in as a new student would be completely different than what’s described on that page. This page has an FAQ for transfer students that might help - [For</a> Transfer Students | General Education | Seaver College | Pepperdine University](<a href=“http://seaver.pepperdine.edu/ge/transferstudents/]For”>http://seaver.pepperdine.edu/ge/transferstudents/)</p>
