Chapman University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Amanda

I wish I had known more about the enviornment. I only visited the school once before I came, and I didn't have a chance to see school in session. I also would've liked to know that there is no cellphone reception in the buildings.

Cosette

That proximity to home is nothing to worry about. You won't lose your old friends or get incurably, disablingly homesick, especially after the first month or so, and living out of state or not should not change anything. There is something to love and something to complain about everywhere you could possibly go.

Nisreen

The type of people that attend and that dorming freshman year is important to making friends for the rest of the college experience. Many of the students pay a lot of attention to the way they look every day and the style/brand they are sporting.

Kimberly

How having a car isn't necessary but makes things a lot easier

Ryan

How to apply for more financial aid, and sign up for more varied classes.

Sun

I wish I had known how small the campus was going to be.

Erika

Nothing! I love Chapman. It is a great school.

Aejoo

How unfair professors can be sometimes. How it's better and cheaper to just go to a junior college the first few years.

David

That I wanted to pursue the digital arts, specifically 3D. That way, I wouldn't have spent the first two years in the dark.

Christy

Psychology majors need to go to graduate school to do something in that field.
