Welcome to the start of your time as Panther Parent! There are several ways you can assist your student to prepare for their Chapman experience and get involved in our parent community.
Assisting your student
It is important that your student learn how to navigate the university independently. However, in some cases they may need some help. Here are a few important steps for you to be able to assist if needed:
- Financial assistance: Through Chapman ePay, parents can view billing statements, make payments, enroll in payment plans and review account activity. However, parents must be granted access by their student to Chapman ePay. You can learn more on our Panther Authorized User page here.
- Academic support: Due to FERPA guidelines Chapman can only disclose information from a student's educational records to parents when we have written consent from the student on file. Your student can access Chapman's Release Authorization Form here.
- Safety and peace of mind: Panther Alert sends emergency messages to your mobile or fixed device of choice so you get emergency messages quickly wherever you are. You can learn more and sign up for Panther Alerts here.
