HOW I AFFORDED PEPPERDINE UNIVERSITY-COLLEGE FINANCE TIPS! 

I forgot to mention! Eliminate the meal plan! Cooking myself saved TONS of money!

As a Pepperdine grad class of 2007. I agree that students can make it work. My family fell in the lower middle class range but I didn't let that stop me. Pepperdine actually does offer some 0% loans and even after the semester starts to can ask financial aid if any scholarships went unclaimed. I did summer school every year, studied abroad my entire sophomore year and did the DC internship program. The entire time I was did campus housing. I graduated with less than 50k of student loans with 25k being 0 interest. It may sound like a lot but hands down I received the best education and experiences I could imagine. My own campus job covered my sorority and auto costs and I worked full time any time I was home. A dream is always worth the sacrifice. 🧡💙🧡💙

I NEEDED THIS VIDEO SO MUCH!!!!!! Thank you thank you!!! I will be transferring (Hopefully) to Pepperdine in fall 2019, and I have been freaking out about paying for this school because of my family's financial situation as well. Thank you so much for these tips, SOOOO helpful!

You're an inspiration, I hope the hard work pays off for you!

wow Pepperdine is so expensive! that's insane! I actually went to APU and just graduated from there..small world! Also I think it's awesome that you knew what you wanted and worked hard to achieve your goals!

Thank you for sharing this❤️ I love how honest you are. You are one if my favorite RU-vidrs:)

Thank you! This was one of the best - most directly informing - videos I've seen on any college. Thank you!

wow, this is a grind. respect for ur work ethic!

how thoughtful thank you for this

Thank you so much, this video was super helpful to me because I want to go to Pepperdine! It’s my dream school!

SO INSPIRING!!

Thanks so much for your tips and perspective. Im aiming for USC or USD which are both crazy expensive and this definitely helps.

WOW great video and thank you for sharing about your dad what an honest review

Thats why I liked going to UCLA I got a full academic Scholarship that covered even off campus housing. Now I got accepted to Pepperdine for Graduate school so Im going to use your tips thank you!

Your skin looks great!! Is there anything you're doing that's helping?!

Thanks for this video because this has really inspired me. I just graduated high school and was denied from my dream school. I chose a school I think I could be happy at but I am still very determined to apply again to my dream school.

Hi there, what did you take as far as course work? When did you graduate? What do you do now for work?

did you live on campus? is housing in Malibu expensive? were you left in any debt from the previous school you went to? I'm thinking about grad school and I am absolutely clueless on how people pay for this stuff.

Thank you so much for macking this video Pepperdine is my #1 choice school and I don’t know how I’m going to cover the cost of everything yet but I’m motivated and looking to do my best

When I hear stuff like that I am just so grateful to study in Germany for free 🙌🏻

I got accepted and am hoping to gather enough finances to attend in the Spring. Could you give me a recommendation and approximate amount of where you worked at the theme park? It doesn't sound like a bad job)

I was born into a wealthy family so I’m very lucky that my parents can afford Pepperdine.

What did you do for housing ? I was just admitted as a transfer and although I received a few scholarships it is still a ton of money.

What theme park and which job did you have there?

You should have started a CC then transfer to Pepperdine that would have slash prices in half, as well as allow to work. I work two security jobs help me pay off college debt free and have income saved up. Since you are in LA you can work for Apple security for they have a base in Cupertino, SF, SJ, Fremont LA, etc. worked there 16 months they will take care of you also, major in something that will pay off

How did you stop the loan if they were over 4.....Please tell me..

Did the scholarships and financial aid u got last for your junior and senior year at Pepperdine or did u have to apply again for that?

Can I ask where you borrowed your loans from?

AYO WAVES!!

Hi, did you apply for FAFSA, and how much did you receive? I am in the same situation you were in and I really need help.

rip I’m going to Azusa in the fall, sucks that you didn’t like it, I hope it’s different for me lol

I was thinking of transferring to Pepperdine and it’s crazy expensive

Does pepperdine offer full ride scholarships?

Hii, was there, in pepperdine, any students that came from Italy?
