Vehicle Registration
All vehicles brought to George Fox University or neighborhood as outlined on campus map, whether owned by employees, students, or the university, must be registered with Security Services. Employees and students must register within one week of campus activity. Students need to register on myGFU by the Add/Drop date of each semester.
If you are NOT planning to bring a vehicle to campus, you still must register on myGFU. Follow the same procedures for registering a vehicle. Type in NOCAR in the vehicle box, and then click OK.
Unregistered vehicles found after the Add/Drop date will be citied for a non-registered vehicle and issued a non-refundable parking permit. A vehicle found with three tickets for non-registration will be immobilized. See the booting policy at the bottom of the page.
Vehicle registration process: Registration is available online through myGFU. Parking permits will be delivered through campus mail unless other arrangements are made.
Parking permit placement: All student permits should be fully affixed to the outside of the lower left driver's side corner of the rear window. Do not place a new permit on top of an old permit. It will not adhere properly! Vehicles displaying permits in any other way are considered to be improperly displayed and will be ticketed as such. Staff hangtag permits should be hung from the rearview mirror.

For students
- Log on to myGFU using your GFU e-mail user name and password.
- Once logged onto myGFU, select Self Service from the shaded box in the upper left-hand corner.
- Next click on University Forms (to the right of Self Service).
- The Newberg Vehicle Registration link should then pop up, and click on that link.
- Enter all of your vehicle information in the empty boxes. License plates should be typed in using all caps with NO spaces or dashes. Click OK if you are only registering one vehicle.
- If Commuters need to enter a second vehicle, click on Additional Vehicle after filling out the boxes for the first vehicle, and a new set of empty boxes should appear. Fill those out for the second vehicle and click OK.
- If the message says "The Save Was Successful" after you click OK, then log out of myGFU and wait for your parking permit to be delivered to Mail Services where you will sign for your permit like a package.
- Students staying on campus are only allowed to register ONE vehicle (a motorcycle is considered to be your ONE vehicle). Commuters can register up to two vehicles, and will receive a permit for each vehicle, but are charged for only ONE vehicle permit. Married students are only charged for one vehicle, and one spouse should register as NOCAR, and the other spouse should register the one or two vehicles to avoid having both spouses charged.
- Students living within the Good Neighbor Zone and NOT applying for a commuter permit in addition to the Good Neighbor Permit need to register in person at the Security Office. Proof of residence (bills, checks, letter from landlord) with the name and address printed on it need to be brought along in order to procure a gratis Neighborhood Permit. All Neighborhood Permits are issued only in the Security Office, and can be done before the semester begins to avoid long waits (and potential parking tickets before the Add/Drop date. Neighborhood Permits must be returned to the Security office at the end of the school year to avoid a $5 replacement fee.
- All student vehicles found parked on campus or in the neighborhood without a valid permit after the Add/Drop date will automatically be charged for a non-refundable parking permit.

Otherwise, your parking permit can NOT be assigned or mailed to you without that information. You still need to register online in addition to filling out the paper vehicle registration form.
