Walk-in Guidelines
- Walk-in hours are intended for quick, 10-minute questions only. If questions take more than 10 minutes, students may be asked to re-enter the waiting room queue/return to lobby for their additional/remaining questions to give all students an equal chance to speak to an advisor.
- You MUST have your Chapman Student ID ready. This applies for both the Zoom and in-person session.
- You will be meeting with the first advisor available for assistance. It may not be possible to meet with your assigned academic advisor, but rest assured any advisor can help you with your questions.
- Academic advisors cannot meet with the parent without the student present.
- Question Topics that can be addressed in Walk-Ins
- Registration & class schedule questions
- General Education
- Academic Policies and Procedures
- Exploration Focus options
- Math or Language Placement process
- AP/IB exam credit equivalencies
