Traditional Undergrad | fall 2025
Welcome back, Bruin! We’re so glad you’re rejoining us and can’t wait to see you pursuing a bright future, growing in your faith, and overcoming challenges within our George Fox community again.
How to Apply
-
Fill Out the Application
The readmittance application is required for former George Fox students who are pursuing readmission to the university after an absence of more than one semester and are degree-seeking. If you withdrew during the semester immediately prior to the semester you intend to re-enroll (example: withdrew spring 2020, plan to re-enroll in fall 2020) or are not degree-seeking, you are not required to submit a readmit application.
-
Send College Transcripts (potentially required)
If you’ve attended another college or university since departing George Fox, your official transcripts are required before your readmit application will be evaluated. Send those directly to the readmit admissions counselor, Katie McVae, at kstensether@georgefox.edu.
Once Your Application Is Complete
-
File FAFSA
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the form you need to fill out to get financial aid including grants, work-study and low-interest loans from the federal government to help you pay for college.
-
Submit Enrollment Deposit
This is the big moment! You haven’t actually made your college decision until you’ve submitted your enrollment deposit. Submitting your enrollment deposit is your way of telling us we’ll see you this fall. Time to celebrate – your Bruin adventure is officially underway!
On-campus housing selections are made in order of enrollment deposit, and students who deposit on or before February 15 will get to select their dorm room much earlier during housing selection. All enrollment deposits are refundable prior to the May 1 deadline.

Review Financial Aid Package
Your financial aid package will arrive by mail after you've been admitted to George Fox and received your admissions packet. It'll include your merit scholarship award and need-based aid including workstudy eligibility. And, don't forget about Scholarship Summit and external scholarship opportunities – both are avenues to significantly lower your out of pocket cost.
Our financial aid and tuition page has lots of resources to help you understand the financial aid process and our admissions team is always ready to answer your questions.
