[校友答疑] Pepperdine University 2007年校友答疑

I am a 2nd year MBA student at Pepperdine(I got my master from Fudan in finance, GMAT/750, got full scholarship and GA) and will work for an investment bank in Los Angeles after graduation in April. Glad to share some information about this school and the program:

-------------------------------------------------------

Some rankings of Pepperdine if you are interested:

The Graziadio School of Business & Management has been consistently ranked by BusinessWeek as having one of the world's Top 25 Executive MBA programs, and US News & World Report has ranked the Graziadio School's Fully-Employed MBA program in the world's Top 30 and its Full-Time MBA program in the world's Top 100. Financial Times magazine has ranked the Graziadio School's EMBA in the world's Top 65. (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepperdine_University)

-------------------------------------------------------

If you plan to stay in Los Angeles, you will know the value of Pepperdine's MBA. It has a good reputation in California among recruiters. Private schools are known to have the best professors and facilities, which is quite different from China. What I like most is the network at Pepperdine, especially for anyone who has enterpreneur spirit, you will find it a great school- many of your classmates have family business in the US or in other countries.

For interview and recruitying:

Interview differs from person to person. I was interviewed by one alumni in Shanghai and he's very professional. But as far as I know, as the number of applicants increase in recent years, requirements for scholarship and admission also increased.
