We visited the art exhibit and drove around the campus. Having stayed a week at the Malibu RV Resort we drove past the campus every day.

The classics - Norman Rockwell, Leyendecker, and more - up front and personal - for free! at a very cozy yet nifty space. This particular exhibit is over, but it's good to keep an eye out for great exhibits like these at a very pretty campus. park on the street to avoid paying $5.

Toured Pepperdine as one of my kids wants to go there. Great tour and information session by admission person. This campus is GORGEOUS! The food was ok. Can't say it's the best campus food we've tried. Oh to be in college again....I would pick Pepperdine!

Our son has applied to Pepperdine and my husband and I were in LA on a business /pleasure trip so we decided to drive to Malibu and check out the campus.

A cool university to drive by. It is like a castle on a hill. The flags are always a fun thing to check out.

I taught violin at Pepperdine for 5 years. I had a pass to get on campus. There is another other way to get in, such as requesting to meet someone on campus. You are meeting at the admissions office or wanting to talk to a tennis coach etc. There are also concerts on campus for the general public at The... More

It is an amazingly beautiful university on a hill with breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean. Th student housing looks like holiday villas. Although it is 75 years old, it still looks very new.

We kept thinking we were off campus by the look of the buildings spread thru the hill side, they all looked like private condos. No they weren't, they were dorms! wow. We went up to the top to Heros Memorial... More
