Frequently Asked Questions

The most efficient way to submit payment is to pay online, or you can check out other payment options.

  • If you are paying per semester (one lump sum), payment is due August 15 for fall and one week prior to the first day of the semester for spring
  • If you have been approved for a monthly plan, payment is due on the 15th of each month (August-November for fall and December-March for spring)
  • You can pre-pay without penalty

Note: Let us know how you intend to pay by completing the required Payment Selection Form.

Student earnings from on-campus employment are paid directly to the student. To include these funds on your Payment Estimator, please secure an on-campus job and complete the Automatic Student Payroll Deduction Form.

Great question! The most common reason is it hasn't been reported in MyGeorgeFox. Once it has been reported, your Payment Estimator can be updated.

To defer a portion of your balance due to a delayed external scholarship, fill out the Scholarship Deferral Request Form.

George Fox requires its full-time students be covered by medical insurance. To opt out, complete the Health Insurance Form/Waiver in your MyGeorgeFox Tasks tile. If you opt out, please be prepared to submit your current health insurance policy information and allow 48 hours for charges to be adjusted.

We ask for a guarantor because we want to know who is standing with you in this financial obligation. This is common with most financial agreements, and it increases your options for payment.
