The goal for Undeclared students is to explore academic options until you find the right one for you. At Chapman, we help you through this process with our Exploratory Majors program for first-year students.
There are three key steps for you to take in this program:
- Select an Exploratory Pathway: We offer several broad, academic pathways that will help you learn more about and take classes in a subject area you are interested in.
- Take part in our Atlas Early Arrival Program (Saturday, August 17-Monday, August 19, 2024): This is pre-Orientation programming exclusively for Exploratory Programs participants.
- You will join other incoming students to prepare for your first semester and Undeclared experience.
- Additionally, you will be able to move into campus housing early. You will be housed with other Exploratory Pathways participants in an Atlas Living-Learning Community. (You can learn more about Living-Learning Communities here.)
- Register for University 101 your first semester. University 101 is a 1-credit course (one 50-minute class a week).
- In the class, you will learn more about being a successful college student and be introduced to different majors at Chapman and how they connect to careers.
