College Scorecard reports school-wide earnings and price, not per-major outcomes for individual colleges. Program share is a concentration signal, not a promise of department quality. Use it as a proxy, then verify department-level outcomes with the school.
Value among peer schools
Compared with 401 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is 5.0x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($36,612 above), and ten-year median earnings are higher than the peer average ($24,630 above). That combination produces a D value grade and a top 98% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
International Business accounts for 3.9% of reported programs at Pepperdine University, which is bigger than 98% of schools in this field set and 5.0x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 140 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Pepperdine University's average net price is $58,098 per year, about $232,392 over four years. That is $36,612 above the $21,486 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $82,939 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $24,630 above the $58,309 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
Start with program share, net price after aid, graduation rate, location, and whether the department publishes placement or licensure outcomes. EduGradify ranks Pepperdine University #391 of 401 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
