Recent Pepperdine MBA Graduate

Experience during the program

I had a great experience during my time in the Pepperdine Graziadio full-time MBA program. My classmates were incredibly diverse and talented and many of them are my best friends today.

I decided to attend Pepperdine due to the beautiful campus and the school's proximity to the music/entertainment industry in Los Angeles. I was fortunate to be able to accomplish my goal of starting a career in the music industry, primarily due to the multiple internships I obtained throughout my time at Pepperdine.

The only negative thing I would say about the school is there seems to be a lack of connections between the career center and the entertainment industry, especially when it comes to music. Because of this it was much more difficult for me as I felt I had very little helpful assistance from the school in obtaining any of the internships or positions I ultimately received.
