Mission Statement

"Senior Legacy unites seniors through engaging experiences and instills a lifelong commitment to Chapman University that impacts future student opportunities."

It's a long-standing Chapman tradition for the senior class to present the university with a gift as a way to commemorate their time at Chapman and support future generations of Panthers. The Class of 2013 has chosen for their class gift to support merit-based scholarships for future students.

Why scholarships matter?

Chances are, if you are still here, Chapman has provided you with some great experiences. Whether that be memories from that date party you went to with your fraternity brothers, that time you helped kids at the local YMCA during Chapman Day of Service, or the really cool research paper you published with your professor, you have a reason that you are here and have experiences that have prepared you to go out in the world and do great things.

Truth be told, most of us couldn't be here without the support of some sort of financial aid. Even if you don't receive any financial aid, chances are your best friend, your sorority sister or your roommate do and without them your Chapman experience would be totally different! This year, we are encouraging seniors to make a donation of $20.13 toward a class gift to fund future merit-based scholarships.

How do I make a gift?

Making your gift is easy! You can donate online, at one of our many events or tabling days throughout the year. You can give by cash, check or credit card. If you have any questions, please contact Jessica Price '11 at 714-628-2777 or pricej@chapman.edu.

Our goal is to have 40% of the class giving back $20.13.

Senior Experiences

In addition to our fundraising campaign, Senior Legacy wants to provide more experiences to make our last year the best year! Throughout the year we will be hosting several events to bring seniors together and build upon the experiences and memories we have already made this far.

  • What is Senior Legacy?
    In brief, the Senior Legacy unites seniors through engaging experiences and instills a lifelong commitment to Chapman University that impacts future student opportunities. Furthermore, the Senior Legacy will be hosting events to bring the class of 2013 together throughout the year as well as encouraging donations by seniors to the senior class gift, benefiting the merit-based scholarship fund and providing opportunities for future panthers.

    Why is it important to give?
    The Senior Legacy Campaign will create opportunities for future students to have the same fulfilling Chapman experience that you enjoyed during your time here. Did you know that over 82% of Chapman students benefit from some form of financial aid or scholarship assistance. Helping others receive an outstanding Chapman University education is a powerful way to show our thanks for the support we received as students while empowering future generations. Furthermore, donations made by seniors increase the value of the Chapman degree by increasing alumni giving rates and university rankings.

    How do I make a gift?
    Making your gift is easy! You can donate at one of our many events or tabling days throughout the year or you can donate online, by mail, or by filling out and dropping off a Student Donation form to the Senior Legacy box in AF 303.

    What if I can't afford it?
    There is no minimum gift. Whether you choose to contribute $20.13, $2.13 or $213, every gift is important. Together, the Class of 2013 can and will make a meaningful and lasting legacy at Chapman University.

    How can I get involved?
    There will be a variety of events throughout the year for seniors to connect and get involved with making the Senior Legacy possible. Keep an eye out for announcements of upcoming Senior Legacy events by 'liking' us on Facebook and following us on Twitter!

More than 60 Chapman seniors have come together to make a difference in the lives of students by raising more than $2,500 for merit-based scholarships.
