<p>sorry let me mention that i am not looking for financial aid so i am wondering if i apply before Nov 15th i will have a better shot at getting admission do you know if it has priority?</p>
<p>well I know in my school, there was this kid that made it in who applied for the nov 15th. To be honest, it's still a wonder how that kid got in since he really wasn't that smart. So I would think it would only help if you applied earlier...</p>
<p>can someone confirm this please. I to have mediocre stats 3.5uw/25act, but my essays are superb as are my recs and ECs. I would love/need to know what would be the best time for me to apply? (i dont need financial aid i am just looking for admission!</p>
<p>In general I think you should apply as soon as you think you have the strongest application your going to have. Will fall grades, SAT's, or essays be any better in December then they are now? Then maybe you should wait. This is in general; Not about Pepperdine.</p>
<p>from their brochure i received this is word for word what it says so hopefully someone can help me decipher on if the Nov 15th deadline is priority for admissions not only financial aid... here we go:</p>
<p>November 15: Priority application deadline for first-year and transfer students for the following fall semester. Please meet this deadline for priority consideration for scholarships and financial assistance. To ensure this consideration, the only application and all supporting documents are due on this date.</p>
<p>Apply early will never hurt you as long as you have everything in order and make a good presentation. When you have additional information later you can always submit them at that time. Try to show a lot of interest to Pepperdine by keeping in touch with them. Good luck with your application.</p>
