<p>ohh okay thank you! but if i do end up getting in is the acceptance going to be binding?</p>
<p>no, not for pepperdine cuz u can say no to them

<p>wow, you all have such amazing stats!! you must all be getting amazing offers though!</p>
<p>I have a question and I’ m pretty sure it’s been asked before but… can I accept decisions from another college and if and when Pepperdine accepts me switch the school I’m attending to Pepperdine? Pepperdine is my first choice… and I just don’t want to make the decision to wait for Pepperdine without accepting any other of my schools offers and if they decline me turn out empty handed(no college

<p>Waitlisted =[ Would’ve preferred a rejection. Now we have to wait until a little after June to find out if we get accepted. Most of my colleges need a response by May 1, so I don’t even think I’m going to add my name to the waitlist.</p>
