Acceptance Decisions???

I applied late October for Early Action and I haven’t heard anything back yet so I was wondering if anyone else has? I don’t know if Chapman has rolling acceptance or not. Thanks:)

We should hear back in mid-December. (I’m waiting as well.) Go to the chapmanadmission blog on Tumblr for updates or @chapmanadmit on Twitter.

My daughter applied EA last year and rec’d her acceptance email on December 18 and the packet came in the mail on December 22. This was for non talent (and pharmacy) majors as their process is different. Admissions will send them out when they are done…the date is not the same every year. Good luck and be patient! My daughter is so happy at Chapman.

I’m also waiting to hear back. Just saw on a Chapman admissions blog post from today that “Early Action admission decisions will not be released this week.”
Is there a certain day of the week when Chapman has historically released decisions or is it pretty much random?

After they posted that, they deleted it. And then someone asked the same question and Chapman’s tumblr said that decisions may/may not be released this week… I want to know so badly! :slight_smile:

In the past, it’s always been this Friday. I can’t imagine it would change… does anyone know when their offices close for the holiday?

@Fall2017dreaming Typically schools release on Fridays I think.

@TripleDentGum omg I’m so glad they deleted that!!! I’m also glad that you seem to be checking that blog as religiously as I do lol

@devingrace Their academic calendar says that their final exams end this Friday, so presumably campus will kinda shut down after that, right? I assume Admissions will want to get the decisions out so they can go on Christmas break…

@filmstudent2 Lol! SAME! Glad I’m not the only one who’s just constantly been checking. :smiley:

Okay thanks, everyone! So glad to hear that we still have some hope of a decision this week :wink:
Did anyone else get a little promotional magazine in the mail today from Chapman? Hoping it’s a good sign but maybe they just sent it to everyone who applied.

I have actually received 0 mail from Chapman :0 unless my mom’s been throwing it out.
I’d love to hear back this week to have some positive news going into my finals.

@filmstudent2 I hadn’t received any mail up until today so I wouldn’t worry about it. Crossing my fingers for good news for all of us!

What majors did everyone apply for? I applied for Strategic and Corporate Communication.

I applied for film production so I won’t hear back until February:( idk if they accept film students with a rolling admission or not tho

If you look on their tumblr/twitter there’s two kind of helpful/not helpful updates:

  1. They admitted 1 person already and then after that will do everyone else, apparently it’s tradition
  2. When asked when decisions will come out, they said “We do not release a official date of notifications. We are currently gearing up to release decisions. Please be patient. Your decision will be shown on your Admission Status Portal.”

I hope it comes out today but not sure if it’s likely!

@TripleDentGum Thanks for the updates!! Hoping for today as well but I’m figuring that it’ll be Friday.

are you all applicants who applied EA? Just not sure if you are saying only EA decisions expected to come out this week or could be others too? Also, does everyone’s portal say Awaiting Mid-Year Transcript? I wasn’t sure if everyone gets that or only some - and does it mean they won’t make a decision until they see it?

I believe only EA decisions are coming out today, and RD decisions will not be permanently made until mid-year transcripts are made available.

@Fall2017dreaming Yeah no problem!

@CAtransplant I’m EA but I’m not sure…in past years did ED come out 1st or did ED/EA come out all at once?

Ok that makes sense - thanks @nursewratchet (love your user name, by the way!)

@CAtransplant I applied EA and my portal only says “awaiting final college transcript” because I take dual enrollment classes at a local community college. I asked and they said that this just means that I will have to send a final college transcript next June if I am accepted and decide to attend. My portal doesn’t say anything about the Mid-year transcript although I am planning to send it anyway when it is available.
