Legacy Families

What is a Legacy Student?

A student who has a parent or a grandparent (or maybe even a great-grandparent) who attended George Fox University.

What does this mean for you?

As our way of saying Welcome, we have a special gift for you to pick up during your first Welcome Weekend at George Fox!

After completing your time at George Fox, you will receive the Legacy Stole to wear with your regalia at commencement. This is our way of acknowledging that you continue your family’s tradition of attending George Fox University.

What is a Legacy Family?

If your family has an alumnus/a (either parents or grandparents) who attended George Fox University and currently have a student enrolled, you’re a Legacy Family!

What does this mean for you?

During Welcome Weekend, we have a special gift for legacy families to pick up from the alumni association booth. During the year - usually Parent & Family weekend - we hold special events for Legacy Families. And if you’re ever on campus, be sure to swing by the Alumni Office in Stevens to see what’s happening!

If you think you might be a legacy family or legacy student but haven’t heard from the alumni office before, make sure we know about your alumni-student relationship by filling out this form. Thanks!
