The starting point
Orange County private with discretionary academic merit awards reaching $42,000 per year plus separate talent scholarships in film, performing arts, and engineering — but Chapman publishes no stat-banded ladder, so the award is decided inside admission.
More than one award path. Some awards use published academic thresholds. Others have different selection criteria. A score chart does not describe every award at this school.
