Chapman Fall 2020 Transfers

I just got accepted today to Chapman as a Business Administration Major with the Chapman University Founders Scholarship.

Anyone else hear back yet?

I was accepted yesterday for psychology with the Trustee’s Scholarship. What is the Founder’s Scholarship?

@transferchapman I found this on Chapman’s website: “The Board of Trustees and Founders Scholarships are awarded to new transfer students based on their GPAs at their previous colleges.”

I’m sure they are just different names for transfer merit scholarships. I would assume the amounts differ as well.

ugh! I just got a mid-term grade request.

Not as many people communicating in here as last year… Applying as a film production major hope to hear something back soon!
