Getting Started

Unlike public colleges and universities, Chapman does not have a single set of requirements that guarantees admission to all majors.

To check if college-level coursework completed at other institutions is eligible for transfer credit at Chapman, view our Transfer Credit and Articulation Guidelines.

You can use Transferology to see how your courses will transfer. After creating an account, this free tool allows you to enter courses you have taken (or plan to take) and see which will transfer into a degree program at Chapman.

Majors with Prerequisites

There are some majors at Chapman with required and recommended courses for transfer students. You can view majors with transfer prerequisites and recommended courses here.

If you are applying to a program in a school/college not listed on that page, your major does not have any prerequisites.  

Connect With Us

We are happy to help you at any and every point in the admission process. There are several ways for us to connect:

• Campus Tour: Our tours are offered most weekdays. They are led by current students and are a great way to learn more about the Chapman Experience.
• Transfer Info Session: We offer monthly information sessions that explain the transfer admission process in detail. Sessions will conclude in time for you to also go on a campus tour.
• Transfer College Fair: Transfer admission counselors visit local community college fairs. Many fairs have available advising appointments following the fair.
• Advising Appointments: We can meet one-on-one (on campus or by phone) with you before you apply. Advising is not required, but can help you develop an academic plan at your current school that will aid your transfer process to Chapman. To schedule an advising appointment, call us at (714) 997-6711.
