Pepperdine MSAF

I'm an international student from China and searching for the MSF program in US. I recently discovered the Pepperdine Univ, the MS Applied Fiance program. Does anyone have any ideas of that program? The insight of the program quality, placement or any other information? I know the location is great, but my concern is there are too many similar programs in UCB, UCLA, USC, UCSD etc. Is that a competitive program in CA?

 
TraderDaily:

No. Do not go there. You really should consider Claremont McKenna for a California program. Honestly, I'd go to Vanderbilt or Tulane.

thanks for you suggestion. Could you tell me why??

Pepperdine is an absolutely beautiful school. It is also a very expensive MSF program with no placement stats and like 99% asian kids. CMC places kids regularly. The class is diverse. It is an active and well managed MSF program.

Many schools have the degree, but only a few manage it well and put an emphasis into prepping kids for jobs and after the program.
