This note is to inform you about a change to the sign up process for on campus housing. Beginning with the housing sign ups for Fall 2011 a $150 non-refundable housing deposit will be need to be paid in order to participate in housing selection. Once you have received a housing assignment, your deposit will be held and then applied to your future charges.
The housing deposit arises from the need to have a more accurate picture of how many returning students will be living in campus housing for each academic year. This will enable us to provide better service to both returning students seeking to secure their preferred housing and new students coming in each fall.
We’ll continue to provide more information as we get closer to housing selections in the spring. Additional details will be sent via e-mail to all undergraduate students.
If you have any questions about this deposit, please contact the Student Life Office at housing@georgefox.edu.
