Please check your vehicle registration

Tuesday, July 30th, 2013

Now is a great time for staff and faculty to update their vehicle registration before the fall semester begins! To do so, log on to myGFU and select “Self Service.” Next, click on “University Forms” and the “Vehicle Registration” link should pop up in the middle of the page. After you’ve clicked on that, you can see the vehicles that are currently registered to you. If you no longer have a vehicle, just click on the minus sign to the right of the vehicle info and it will be deleted. To add another vehicle(s), click on the “add another vehicle” box and input the information. The last step is to e-mail Nadine Kincaid with your vehicle changes so your parking permit can be taken off a previous vehicle and reassigned to the new one.

You can purchase an additional permit for just $5 cash at the Security office. Finally, if your permit is taped/stapled/glued together, just bring the pieces to the Security office and we can get you a new one on the spot! Portland Center employees should register their vehicles if they visit the Newberg campus frequently. If you come just once a semester or so, then please come and get a temporary permit at the Security office when you arrive on campus. If you have any questions, call us at ext. 2090 or e-mail Nadine Kincaid (nkincaid@georgefox.edu).
