Financial Aid Policies

The financial aid office is responsible for the administration of undergraduate and graduate student financial aid. We provide counseling and information to students and parents. All students who need financial assistance
are encouraged to apply for aid.

Procedures for Applying for Financial Aid

Applying for financial aid at Chapman is easy. All new students are automatically considered for academic scholarships. There are no special application forms to complete.

Chapman also provides scholarships to new students for special talents such as music, theatre, and dance. An audition may be required to determine eligibility. If so, the admissions office will notify the student.

In addition to scholarships, Chapman provides assistance from an array of grant, loan, and employment programs.

These programs are funded by Chapman, federal and state government, and various private organizations.

To apply, students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Californians should also complete the Cal Grant GPA Verification Form.

When completing the FAFSA, please be sure to list "Chapman University, Orange, California" in Step Six of the form. The Title IV School Code for Chapman is 001164.

The preferential filing date for mailing the FAFSA to the federal processor is March 1, 2001 for the 2001-2002 academic year. Grants, loans, and employment may be awarded to students who apply after March 1; however,
funds likely will be exhausted in some programs.

Please contact the financial aid office with questions: 714/ 997-6741. A toll-free telephone number also is available: 888/ CU-APPLY. In addition to calling the financial aid office, the federal government can be contacted for information about completing the FAFSA: 800/ 4 FED AID.
