2012-13 Housing Information for New Students

If you are planning to commute from your parents’ home please fill out the form Application to Commute from Parents Home.

In order to be housed on-campus, you will need to fill out the online housing form.

  • Log into MyGFU
  • The housing form should appear in the list of forms.
  • Once you have submitted the form, you may go back and edit your responses if you need.

If you have already completed the form, you may still access it. Any responses you have entered should show up when you view the form.

If you are unsure of your login or password to MyGFU, contact the Service Desk by calling 503-554-2569 or emailing servicedesk@georgefox.edu.

Housing Assignment Timeline

We will make your housing assignment based on the date you paid your enrollment deposit, but we must have your completed housing form in order to place you. If we receive your housing form and deposit by May 1st, then you should receive your housing assignment by early June. After May 1st housing assignments will be made on a rolling basis, as space is available. If you submit either your housing form or enrollment deposit after August 1st, you will receive your housing assignment when you arrive on campus for orientation.

Once you have received a housing assignment, you may view your building, room number, and contact information for your roommate in MyGFU.

  • Login to MyGFU
  • Click on “Housing” in the menu on the left
  • Click on “Assign” in the housing menu
  • Finally, click on “Roommate View"
  • If you see a message that says “No matching values were found” then you have not been placed in housing yet.

Eligibility to Live On-Campus

To live in campus housing students must be between 17 and 23 years of age prior to the first day of the semester. Students younger than 17, or 23 and older will automatically be listed as off-campus unless they have successfully petitioned Residence Life to live on-campus. Contact reslife@georgefox.edufor more information about how to petition.

 

Selecting a Specific Roommate

If you wish to room with a specific person, be sure your preferred roommate has listed you on his/her housing form as well. We cannot accommodate roommate requests without written requests from both roommates. 

 

Married Student Housing

We currently do not provide any on-campus housing accommodations for married students, families, or students who have children.
