Dodge College of Film and Media Arts maintains
departmental requirements in addition to what is required to apply to Chapman
University. The Dodge College requirements, listed by major within this section, are designed to showcase each applicant’s talents in relation to his/her major. All departmental materials are to be uploaded to the Common Application; no material will be accepted via any other method.
Major Declaration
Applicants are asked to apply to their top choice of major within Dodge College and respond to the corresponding major requirements. If applicants have a second choice major within Dodge College, they should list it on the appropriate location on the general Chapman supplement, but should not complete the separate major requirement for that area.
After review of the file, should the Admissions Committee in Dodge College feel that the applicant may be better suited for his/her second choice major, the applicant will be contacted and asked to complete the appropriate essay for that area if he/she is still interested.
Notifications Process
Once all materials are received in the Office of Admission, the Chapman University Admission Committee and the Dodge College Admission Committee will review the file.
Applicants will be notified via mail of the admission decisions and can also track their admission status online.
Change of Majors and Minors - For Current Students only
Current students must log on to the Current Students website for all admission-related materials.
