The administrative staff is AWFUL, everyone acts likeQuite BrightBusiness - Management and Administration
The administrative staff is AWFUL, everyone acts like as a student you are a bother. The clubs are exclusive, they hardly meet during the semester and they do not encourage new members, the greek like is basically the same, the people all look the same except for the film students, if it wasn't for that department the whole school would be a stepford wives kind of cult. If you are looking for a place to meet interesting friendly people who are into learning and education in a broad sense I do NOT recommend this school, go to USC or Loyola.

Question
I would recommend forQuite BrightUndecided
I would recommend for people to try a larger public university. Look at UCLA, UCI, and UCSD. Chapman is not worth the tuition. These public universities offer so much more and Chapman's name recognition can not beat UCLA, USC, UCI, and the Claremont Colleges in Southern California.

Question
I'm transferring to a community college because IBrightUndecided
I'm transferring to a community college because I am SOO desprite to get out of here. I leave every weekend becuase their is nothing to do around here without driving through LA traffic and no one wants to leave the bubble of the school. Parties are rolled before they start and the dorm has a closed door policy so most just hang out alone all during the week. I even joined a sorority and still constantly have nothing to do. I wasted my money here. The school also does a poor job correcting its own mistakes. I reseved the lowest grade of college, and the grade was obviously a mistake since I Aced everything in the class and the school will not help me fix the grade and now my whole GPA is brought down. Do not come here, unless your film, or like being alone a lot, bored. Or are coming in with friends who actually want to go out and do things outside of Orange.
