\”As an MBA student, I loved hearing how each of my classmates ended up at Chapman. Everyone at this level has their own personal and professional story, and getting to know everyone in my cohort has been a memorable experience.”
“The worst that can happen from taking a risk is having a great story to tell. Take the risk. Never settle. And most importantly, have fun!”
\”When school gets tough, it’s easy to fall into burnout. Make sure you’re doing things that bring you joy. Besides, in most interviews, they ask what you do outside of school—what will your answer be if you haven’t done anything for yourself?”
\”Get involved in your interests immediately. If something doesn\’t exist, be a leader and create it. Push past your comfort zone and seize every opportunity for growth\”.
\”I would tell my freshman self to take advantage of everything Chapman has to offer. Go to the career fairs and business events, and get to know your professors. The people in Argyros are very well connected and love to help anyone that needs it\”.
\”I think there is a great disconnect between high school and college. I think as a first-year, I felt that disconnect. I would say to take more chances and not be afraid to make mistakes! Making mistakes is part of the course.\”
\”If I could impart three pieces of advice to my freshman self, they would be: embrace challenges wholeheartedly, don\’t get bogged down by the minor setbacks, and always be open to exploring new opportunities\”.
\”Don’t be afraid to get involved and put yourself out there! Being involved at Chapman is honestly the norm; it’s hard to find someone here who ISN’T involved…\”
\”I encourage you to embrace openness like never before. Each person here brings their own distinct qualities to our community, and by engaging widely—from your peers to your professors—you\’ll greatly enrich your college experience.\”
\”Enjoy the high and the low times because it goes by so much faster than you can even imagine.\”
\”Some of the best memories come from taking risks and saying yes to new opportunities.\”
\”My most impactful experience at Chapman was being a part of the Track and Field Team. The program quickly turned around, and we became one of the best teams in the conference, and we are only growing. From going to track meets with my teammates and hanging out with them afterward, I adore and love all my teammates, and they have made my four years at Chapman.\”
