University Recreation welcomes everyone to come play and compete in our upcoming intramural season!
We are offering:
Register on IMLeagues by midnight on Friday, Oct. 29. Contact Angel Glockling (aglockling@georgefox.edu) with any questions.
Midterm grades provide an accurate picture of your academic progress so far this semester.
The last day to withdraw from a class without a graded responsibility for a class you may be struggling in is Sunday, Nov. 7. This means that if you withdraw from a class, your transcript will show a “W.†If you do not withdraw now and ultimately do not pass a course, your GPA will suffer.
If your professor has not yet given you a midterm grade, please contact them right away to find out where you stand in that course.
Information regarding withdrawing from a class can be found here.
Students who received a D or an F on their midterms should contact their CAP coach as soon as possible to discuss the consequences of withdrawing from a class. If a student withdraws from a class, they should also contact their CAP coach to discuss their class schedule for future semesters.
Follow this link to contact CAP coaches.
