“Everyone’s friendly but no one wants to be friends with me” that one hit. I go to a really similar college - tiny and Christian - and it’s also true there. Even tho everyone is nice, it can be so lonely if you aren’t able to find a group of friends. I’ve already been there for three semesters and I only have a couple people I’d be able to say I actually have a real friendship with. But I also know a lot of people who have really great groups of friends. Just really depends a lot on what dorm you live in, what orgs you’re in, what classes you take, etc.

My college is really small, too, and ngl I hate sitting in the cafeteria sometimes because everyone has their own group of friends and I spend pretty much every lunch by myself. I have a couple of close friends, but the loneliness still creeps up

[@moneypenny174]

I wouldn’t want to be friends with a loser who wines about not making friends either.

I just got accepted to Channel Islands and decided I will be transferring there this semester. I have an apartment on campus and all of these college vlogs makes me really excited to start this new chapter in my life that I'll literally be starting in less than 3 weeks!

I definitely can relate to what you said about your college experience because I feel The same way

[@evatang4429]

[@hayleyhall9604]

how were you in a room by yourself? does this cost more or is there a dorm where they’re all like that

[@true9197]

Yay new lens and tripod !!!!!!

[@ashleyeagan2250]

i feel like i read somewhere that it's required to go to weekly chapel or something like that as part of the religion curriculum requirements. is that true?

[@ginadouyon7937]

My son has been accepted for Fall 2022. Would you say Pepperdine and LMU are comparable, just wondering if you have any inside information being that they are similar and close in location. He can’t decide between the two.

[@britneyjoy2982]

my state school is looking super affordable after hearing the tuition lol

[@chloeduchouquette]

i’m almost done with middle school and i’ve really been considering pepperdine. a family friend goes there and she seems to be having a blast. i can’t wait to look into this. ❤️

[@ahn2738]

May i know what camera your using for youtube?

[@severussnape5217]

What’s your major?

[@dreaplascencia]

I’ve been wanting to transfer to Pepperdine or Point Loma for junior year! How would you say the diversity is in Pepperdine?

[@Alibern7]

You can check on niche it tells you the political scene, gender, race, and income

[@janesun3701]

how do you think the students align politically? as a more Christian school, do you feel like they're more conservative and/or less accepting of LGBT+ identities?

[@_stargirlll1_]

what camera do you use?

[@yellowbubble8465]

Do they have a dress code there?

[@enyasversion]

hi melanie!!

[@davidparnell4675]

Hi

[@shezmeister2771]

Idk if it’s just me but university so far has been the worst experience of my life. Literally by mid october i already planned to finish this year and then drop out. Also my uni says it has 11,000 students on campus but the campus is way too tiny for 11,000. You can walk from one end to the other in 5 minutes. The classrooms are tiny. The lecture halls barely hold 150 people most likely less. Most of the buildings are dorms and not actual class buildings.

[@joliesmith4386]

I'm sorry, that sucks, have you made any friends at least?

[@shezmeister2771]

@@joliesmith4386 yh and thank god i did or else i would have dropped out already. To be fair a lot of the people i met at university are actually not very nice but my two friends were the only ones willing to talk to me.

[@MrKevinz328]
