Considering Pepperdine?

Ranked the second-most beautiful Christian university by christianuniversitiesonline.org,

with an idyllic ocean-front campus and impressive art museum and dorms to match.

There's great merit aid available, but students earn it by taking a rigorous core curriculum; business, advertising/public relations, psychology, biology, and music are consistently strong programs.

Division I Men's Baseball, Volleyball, and Water Polo plus Women's Tennis are consistent winners: ideal weather that keeps everyone outside might be factor.

Pepperdine emphasizes community service and internships and regardless of major, sophomore

study abroad.
