Favorite spot on campus
The Orange Circle! Though it's technically not on campus, it’s right next door! If you’re visiting Chapman, I highly recommend a walk through the Circle. It is the perfect place to grab a bite to eat, study, or work. Fun fact: I worked as a barista at the Starbucks in the Circle throughout my undergraduate experience!
Best admission memory
There are too many to choose just one! I have built many incredible, lifelong friendships through this office both as a student tour guide and as a professional staff member. It is especially cool being able to see the impressive careers and achievements that fellow tour guide alums have pursued and I am proud to be a part of this community!
