Extend the Be Known promise to Scholarship Summit guests today

March 3rd, 2022

The Office of Undergraduate Admissions will be hosting Scholarship Summit on campus today (Friday). With around 300 visitors expected on campus, we are asking George Fox students and employees to help extend the Be Known promise throughout the day.

Here’s what you can keep in mind:

  • Use street parking instead of campus parking lots. Guests will be arriving on campus Friday morning between 8 and 8:30 a.m. and will fill all the main campus parking lots.
  • Be mindful of guests in your living area. There will be housing tours circulating through Edwards, Gulley, Pennington, and HMS from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tour groups will be viewing dorm lobbies and a room on the first floor of each dorm.
  • Plan for a busier than usual Canyon Commons. Guests will use the main server line and will be encouraged to dine in CCD 101-103. If you see a family looking for a spot to sit, invite them to join you!

If you have questions, email visit@georgefox.edu or call Lauren Hill at 503-554-2245.
