We do our best to see that no student is turned away from attending Chapman for financial reasons alone. The Admission and Financial Aid Offices work together to alert students to the federal and state grants–in–aid, part–time employment, and low–interest loan programs available. Each year Chapman invests more than $84 million in scholarships, grants, and loans for academically promising and needy students. In addition, the Business Office works closely with students and parents to assure that billing is accurate and timely. All costs listed in this section are subject to change without notice.

Students dropping a course in the prescribed manner after the add/drop period and on or before the final day to withdraw from a course (as stated in the "Academic Calendar" section) will receive a "W" notation.
The "FW" grade is assigned to students who cease attending part way through the semester but who do not officially withdraw via WebAdvisor or the Office of the University Registrar. "FW" is computed in the grade‑point average as an "F." Students who take a course Pass/No Pass, cease attending part way through the semester, and fail to officially withdraw will receive an "NP" grade.
International programs/courses have refund schedules and policies that differ from the rest of the university. Please contact the Center for Global Education to obtain additional information.
