Summer Welcome Receptions are your first opportunity to meet future classmates, connect
with other Chapman families, and start feeling at home — before the semester even
begins.
These relaxed, regional gatherings bring together incoming first-year and transfer
students and their families. You'll meet people from your area who are heading into
Chapman alongside you. Current students, families, and alumni will be there too, ready
to share what Chapman life is like and answer any questions you have.
Registration for 2026 Summer Welcome Receptions are now open. We can't wait to see
you soon. Welcome to the Chapman Family!
