***Pepperdine Class of 2021 RD Discussion***

Did anyone from the pacific time zone get anything yet?

From east coast and got accepted for spring semester but originally applied for fall

still waiting here from pacific time zone.

@luckymom22 also waiting- from east coast. If I didn’t get in I just want to know already so I can move on

@collegegoer101 the email says “This years applicant pool was exceptionally competitive, as we reviewed over 12,400 truly remarkable applications for 890 openings.”

@graduate2021 ahh okay thanks

D was accepted…go Waves!!!

Instate
ACT: 32
GPA 3.86 uw/4.4 w
Lot’s of AP and honors classes
Good ECs with sports, active in community, etc

Other schools applied to include:

UCLA - pending (#1 choice for D… but realize it is a reach)
UCB - pending
UCSB - pending
UCSD - accepted
UCSC - accepted
UCD - accepted
USC - pending
Pepperdine - accepted
Cal Lutheran - accepted
SDSU - accepted
U of Hawaii - accepted

Do you think that getting accepted for the spring semester has something to do with being on the east coast? Is there a chance that I could get moved to fall?

@waterbottle00 I don’t think it has anything to do with being on the east coast, they probably didn’t have room for you for the fall but still wanted to offer you a spot so they gave you one for the spring. It may be dissapointing but atleast you got accepted!

Here is my decision:

Admitted - Transfer Student
Major: accounting
Stats: 3.9gpa
GEs: finished some? idk
Major prereqs: finished econ, acct, calculus, and writing i think
EC: accounting tutor and teacher’s aide
Essay: I bs the essay part. Reused my USC essay for it.
Other schools applied: USC, UCs and CSUs

Comments: I will not be attending Pepperdine because I’m aiming for other schools such as USC(first choice) and UCs. I hope all of you get in and good luck to everyone! Btw is the statistics really true: “This year’s applicant pool was exceptionally competitive, as we reviewed over 12,400 truly remarkable applications for approximately 890 openings. Therefore, you should be incredibly proud of your accomplishment. A formal hardcopy letter will be mailed to your home address in addition to this email notification.” ?

So is there a GroupMe for Pepperdine?

^^ yeah does anyone know is there is a pepp 2017 groupme?

Accepted!
27 ACT
3.88 uw/4.1 w
10 AP classes (my grading system is weird where AP classes are not weighted very much)

They did not accept 7% of the applicants. What the numbers mean is that they received 12,400 applications and have 890 spots in the class. They expect a yield rate of about 30% - meaning that of the students they accepted, about 30% will accept the offer. So it is more likely that Pepperdine accepted 25-30% of the applicants.

International (Europe) still nothing

In the Pacific time zone and still waiting

Still no email, from cali, did I not get in?

I’m from Cali too

I’m so scared @anya6606 it’s my top choice and I’m scared I didn’t get in…

Honestly same here I’m terrified but we can’t do anything now @pepperdine21!!
