Chapman

Post by Temka » Mon Nov 09, 2009 11:19 pm

Has anyone been admitted to Chapman. I have been "under review" for a while. It says it takes them about 6 weeks, but I am wondering if that is really true or not?
If anyone has been admitted or denied please post your stats.

Chapman is a good school. It will be climbing into the top 100 soon into the same class as USF SCU and Loyola. It has a good rep in OC and I have heard only good things. It is not Harvard, but its a good school.

As for where else I am applying its too long a list for me to put here due to my lazness lol. Its mostly on my profile.

You are lucky to get in so quickly. My status went under review the exact same day as yours, but it still says under review. I called them and they said that it will take 6-8 weeks from when the app went under review. You getting in so quickly might mean they like you a lot and therefore can expect some scholarship money.
Congrats

Also, by looking at your stats, and considering that Chapman is not even in the top 100 yet, your are a lock for a large scholarship. It looks like you got into USD though and although I like Chapman, I wouldnt pass up SD for it

You are on to my thought process. I'm honestly at the hopeful for a UC or USC (to the point where I've begun the weird luck rituals and the usual goat sacrificing hopeful hahah j/k).

You have great stats, u should aim high. My LSAT is low and I refuse to take it again so that is why Chapman, USD are the kind of schools I am applying to. Good luck, you have the stats for the UC's and USC I would think

I was in by status checker last Wednesday and got a package on Saturday with a full tuition scholarship offer. I can't seem to find Chapman in the list of schools I can put on my TLS profile.

Chapman isn't a Tier 1 or "Top-Law-School" so it get's no love here. It seems to be a good school if you want to practice in the area and in our case don't want to drown in debt. Are you considering it over Tulane?

For Chapman I like the location, Entertainment Law Certificate, and full scholarship. For Tulane, I like the greater lay prestige and the scholarship is still pretty good. I still am waiting to hear from a bunch of other schools.

Are you from the Southern California area?

Applied 1/11, accepted 1/19. I had about their median in GPA, above 75th for LSAT.

This may be a silly question, but do applicants typically find out about scholarship offers through the snail mail acceptance letter?
