Scholarships
Chapman University offers two kinds of non-need based scholarships; merit scholarships and talent scholarships.
Merit Scholarships
Merit scholarships are awarded to students at the time of admission. Scholarship eligibility is based of application information.
First Year Students
First year students are awarded merit scholarships based on their GPA and standardized test scores. These scholarships range from $7,000 - $23,000 depending on the student’s academic achievements. The admission committee will evaluate students for scholarships when they apply for admission and notify them shortly after admission notification.
Transfers
Merit Scholarships are awarded to transfer students based on their college GPA and curriculum. These scholarships range from $6,000 – $10,000. The admission committee will determine if a student is eligible and notify them shortly after their admission notification.
Maintaining your Merit Scholarship:
All merit scholarship recipients must maintain a cumulative Chapman GPA of at least 2.75 and full-time enrollment. Students who do not meet these requirements will be unable to receive further merit scholarship assistance. Students who are no longer able to receive merit scholarship assistance are welcome to apply for other forms of financial aid such as the Chapman grants.
Talent Scholarships
Talent scholarships are available from the following departments; art, athletic training, creative writing, dance, English, film/TV, music, science, and theatre.
Students interested in being considered for a talent scholarship should contact the Office of Admission for information. Each department has their own criteria for receiving a talent award in that area. Talent scholarships vary greatly based on students particular interests and talent level.
Detailed information on talent scholarships can be obtained by the appropriate department by interested students.
