The housing office wants to clarify some confusion about how your credit hours work with housing:

What credits count for housing?
Your housing credits = cumulative credits + credits you are currently taking this spring

Do Fall 2008 credits count for housing?
You need to be registered for the fall, but these credits do not count in your housing credits. If you are not registered for the fall, then you will not contribute your housing credits to your group.

We hope this helps clarify the confusion. If you have any questions, please contact the Student Life Office. ext. 2310 or housing@georgefox.edu.
