General Information

Malibu is located right alongside the Pacific Ocean, just about 30 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles. Pepperdine’s picturesque campus is just a few hundred yards up the hill from Malibu Beach. The Malibu area, along with the rest of Southern California, offers tremendous recreation, sporting and entertainment opportunities. Pepperdine is an independent, medium-sized Christian institution committed to the highest standards of academic excellence and Christian values. The current enrollment of 7,539 students is distributed between five colleges and schools, including Seaver College, the flagship undergraduate school of liberal arts and sciences. A bachelor’s degree is available in 42 areas of study. Pepperdine was ranked number 57 by the U.S. News and World Report’s list of America’s best colleges in 2014. Pepperdine was awarded the title of “Most Beautiful Campus” by the Princeton Review in 2005 and continually ranks in the top ten. Students and alumni consistently cite the quality, accessibility and caring nature of the faculty and staff as among Pepperdine’s major strengths. The student-to-faculty ratio is 13:1. There are 395 full-time teaching faculty, and 98% of full-time faculty have earned doctoral degrees. Students are provided with experiential opportunities, including research projects and internships so that their knowledge can be put to practice. 75% of Pepperdine undergraduates receive some form of financial assistance.

Pepperdine University is respected both nationally and internationally. Students come to Pepperdine from all 50 states and more than 70 countries worldwide. Additionally, nearly 60% of Pepperdine’s undergraduate students study abroad at one point within one more than 20 international programs. Pepperdine was recently voted as having the second best study-abroad program in the nation by the Institute of International Education. Study-abroad programs include Heidelberg, Germany; London, England; Florence, Italy; Buenos Aires, Argentina; Lausanne, Switzerland; and Shanghai, China. Among the different majors offered, the top five at Seaver College are business administration, psychology, political science, biology and advertising. The University was founded in 1937 by George Pepperdine, a Christian businessman who established the Western Auto Supply Company. Pepperdine is classified as an NCAA Division I school. Since the I-AAA Athletic Director’s Association All-Sports Trophy was established, ranking the various schools on their postseason success, Pepperdine has finished in first place three times (2004-05, 2005-06 and 2011-12). The Waves have won NCAA Division I championships in five different men's sports – one of just 16 schools to have accomplished this feat – and nine overall. Of this elite group, Pepperdine has the smallest enrollment and is the only school not in a major conference. Pepperdine has also won the AVCA Sand Volleyball National Championship in 2012 and 2014.

Local Attractions Beaches With 21 miles of coastline, Malibu has many beautiful beaches. For more information on the beaches below, please visit: http://www.ci.malibu.ca.us/index.aspx?nid=96.

Surfrider Beach A famous right-break, this beach had a big impact on surfing culture in Southern California in the 1960s. Located near the Malibu Pier, it is still probably the most surfed spot in Los Angeles County.

Zuma Beach One of the largest and most popular beaches in the Los Angeles County, Zuma is known for its long, wide sands and excellent surf. Zuma is protected by the Lifeguard unit with 14 lifeguard towers.

Escondido Beach This short and narrow beach that runs from Escondido Beach Road on the Pacific Coast Highway is a popular put-in point for kayakers. Escondido Beach is also one of the few “dog friendly” beaches in Malibu.

Westward Beach Westward Beach Road runs at the base of sea cliffs that jut out into the ocean at Point Dume. Point Dume is more removed from the highway, making it quieter than other area beaches. The boardwalk overlooks the State Preserve, where volunteers are removing invasive iceplant to restore native coastal scrub habitat. It’s also a good place for whale watching in season. Leo Carrillo Beach This park includes 1.5 miles of beach for swimming, surfing, windsurfing, surf fishing and beachcombing, as well as tide pools, coastal caves and reefs for exploring. Giant sycamores shade the main campgrounds. The park also features back-country hiking. Nature walks and campfire programs are offered and a small visitor center has interpretive displays. During the summer, children's programs are available.
