Applying to Chapman as a home-schooled student
Chapman evaluates home-schooled students (and all other students) through a holistic process. Here are the factors Chapman uses to determine admission:
- Strength of curriculum.
- Grade trends and overall academic performance.
- SAT or ACT scores (test scores are strongly recommended for home-schooled applicants).
- Personal Statement and responses to Chapman University questions.
- Letter(s) of recommendation.
- Extracurricular activities, jobs, non-academic activities and responsibilities.
- Academic major and preparation for major.
Because we hope to have work that is externally graded or examined, we highly recommend submitting some combination of SAT/ACT results, AP exam results, transcripts from college courses or other accredited online schooling programs.
