<p>Hi, everyone! I was recently accepted into Pepperdine with a Regents' Scholarship, which offers a lot of money and seems to be a cool program. However, I am having some doubts about Pepperdine's reputation, though that may be a shallow concern. I am from the east coast, and barely anyone seems to have heard of it out here. I have also gotten accepted into several other schools that are higher in the rankings (Boston College honors program, UVA, Villanova). What east coast schools would you say its reputation is comparable with? I feel silly for caring so much about reputation, but I really want to make the right decision that offers me the best opportunities.</p>
<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I’m from the east coast as well and i’m a sophomore at Pepperdine. I would say it’s between a “Wake Forest”" and a “Clemson”. It has a pretty good reputation out here. It’s easy to land good internships in LA, at-least from my experience.</p>
