What school to go to in Southern Californai
Hello all, I had a question for those you in the southern California area.
I have an option to attend Pepperdine’s Fully employed program, due to various scholarships, at a very minimal costs (only about $35 K).
My goal to get my MBA would be to seg way a little out of my current career (CPA in Financial Reporting) to more of an FPNA/ finance manager role or, long shot, operations or strategy role.
I was curious if those of you familiar with the school and area thought about Pepperdine considering the goals I have.
Normally, I wouldn’t consider it if I had to pay the full costs of $88K, but the minimal investment on my part makes it very appealing.
I would also have the option to attend USC’s part time program, but at $120 K, which I would have to finance, that option isn’t quite as appealing.
Based on my goals and the school options I have, what you all recommend I do?
A good price is reflective of its opportunities - I think that's why it's cheap in your case.
Umm neither?
Retake the GMAT and get a 700 and you should be able to get into Anderson.
That is a good option and thanks for your response.
Unfortunately, while I can increase my gmat score (in theory) I can't go back and increase my undergraduate GPA. It is only a 3.0.
Would this preclude me, even if I got well above a 700, from getting into UCLA Part time or USC full time, in your experience?
Thanks!
Agreed - stay away from Pepperdine. I think it would be best to target the PTMBA at UCLA (as first choice option) and USC. Just my .02
