Admission Deadlines
Still Accepting Applications for Fall 2026
Pepperdine School of Public Policy continues to review applications from domestic applicants on a selective, case-by-case basis as space permits. Applicants are encouraged to apply as soon as possible, as consideration may close once the incoming class reaches capacity.
