Hosts needed for international students during orientation week
This fall the university is expecting more than 40 new international students. Their first point of contact with our school is in our International Student Orientation. This orientation begins before the general new student orientation and requires international students to arrive several days earlier than the American students.
If we were to house these students on campus, they would be staying in near-empty buildings in rooms without their American roommates. Our desire is to place all of our incoming international students with host families during our international orientation. What better first impression could they have of arriving in America and staying with an American Christian family?
Would you be willing to host a new international student? The students will be arriving on Wednesday and Thursday, Aug. 13-14, and be in orientation for a week. Please contact Alex Pia (apia@georgefox.edu) for more information.
