Pepperdine University Chances

I was curious as to what my chances are in getting into Pepperdine University as an undergraduate.

Out of state

I am a Roman Catholic

White

GPA: 3.8

SAT: 1030
Evidence-Based Reading & Writing
540

Math
490

I’m taking a college course outside of school to earn 3 college credits - all AP classes.

I have participated at Columbia University in a debate, and am also attending their now for a law program.

I am a founder of a club at my school which is revolved around animal activism.

I am going to be having an internship outside of school.

Wow you’re EC’s are very impressive, I’m sure those will help your chances!! You’re GPA is well within the “typically accepted” average! If you want to further increase your chances I’d reccomend giving the SAT another go, attempting to obtain a higher score definitely won’t hurt anything, and could place you at a higher academic standing of all applicants (making you eligible for academic scholarships!!) Pepperdine is a highly competitive school, but I definitely think you have a fair shot - good luck and I hope it all works out!! :slight_smile:

Thanks for taking the time to reply to me and for your positive feedback! I really appreciated during this stressful process :slight_smile:

Pepperdine admission chances? I got a 1220 on my sat and have a 4.0 gpa and EC’s such as sports, a few clubs, and I organized a 5k for charity. If anyone has any input lmk!

your gpa is really solid but you should try to bring up your sat to at around 1350-1400 range for better chance. GL!
