Yeah, my stats are similar but it's much more than a GPA they're looking for.

I'm not sure if I want to apply for Spring but we'll see what happens during the process. Good luck to everyone.

If you read the website, they're not coming out with instructions until September. And what's with the competitive attitude? Are we all forgetting that the industry is about collaboration? We should be supporting each other, not competing.

Oh yeah, Celestially's rejection made me less comfortable because I have the same GPA as her(3.3). Hopefully with the summer courses I'm taking, I'll get it up to a 3.4.


If you think you'll be admitted on GPA alone, you're sadly mistaken. Read the FAQ's on this website http://ftv.chapman.edu/ VERY carefully. By the way, my GPA is a 3.1.

I didn't mean to put off a competitive attitude. Sorry if it came off that way. And for some reason, I thought you had a 3.3. I must've read that somewhere else. Hmm. I've been reading a bunch of boards lately with "chances" thread on College Discussions so I probably have gotten confused. Anyways, good luck if you apply for Spring.

In light of your recent failure, it might be time to abandon the self-empowering values of "The Secret" in favor of a more practical belief system, such as Alchemy or islamofascism.

Don't be sorry. Wink You're fine. I'm just making stuff known so you and others are aware. Didn't mean to come off as harsh.

You need to stop because nobody really cares about people like you.

I just checked with my girlfriend, who had also applied to Chapman for the fall (graduate program).

Her web advisor has been at decision complete for over two weeks now (she has not been contacted by the school since she dropped off her application), but the intended start date notice just showed up on her page within the last day or so.

So maybe its a standard notice and Chapman is just now getting it posted to everyones advisor (behind schedule due to those technical problems perhaps?)

Just a thought. The wait continues.

Have a great night people!

Barven Armen. Enchbes es? Tun al hayeran ga hosis?

I called the school today and the lady chose her words carefully. It seems to me that the updating Intended Start Date may/may not have been a generic add-on to everyone's apps. I think my app may have just been sent out today (Tuesday), so hopefully I'll get in within the next few days. I got waitlisted at USC so I think the odds are in favor of Chapman letting me in...

I'm applying in the spring as well. Does anyone know how many students they let in each spring? I believe for fall, it's around 50 transfers.

Judging from your avatar, I hope to see you in a "The Downward Spiral"-era Nine Inch Nails video!

I think it says on their website...and if I remember correctly, I think it was around half the students they would regularly admit in the Fall.

If it is around half for Fall, then do 295/2 and that's 147.5. I got the number 295 from the Chapman booklet they sent me in the mail about transfers accepted in fall 2007.

According to Chapman's website, it says:

The fall numbers for freshman are:

Film production: 100
Film studies: 20
Digital arts: 20
Public relations and advertising: 30
Screenwriting: 30
Television and broadcast journalism: 30

For transfers in the fall:

Film production: 30
Film studies: 10
Digital arts: 15
Public relations and advertising: 20
Screenwriting: 20
Television and broadcast journalism: 20

So that's roughly 230 freshman's and 115 transfer students.

Yes, but it also says that they rarely accept film production majors in the spring.
I wonder if rarely means that they don't accept anyone certain years.

Well, I am applying as film production. I may as well just apply for Fall.

I would love to apply for Fall of next year. The only problem I have is, the school that I'm currently attending requires me to take some film courses that I don't think will transfer to Chapman. So, by applying in the spring I would be losing less credits. I hope that Chapman takes that into consideration.
