I am much more than a student number here. Our professors, counselors and staff in general really care about us and go out of their way to help us be a success.

The community life of George Fox is amazing. My dorm is full of life and we all get along very well. It makes it a lot easier to transition from home-life with all your friends and family around to a place where you don't know anyone. Everyone is very open and friendly. I love the beauty of Newberg and the activities that I am able to do here.

YES! I love the sense of community that our college has, and that it is a smaller college. I'm from a very small town (about 500 people), so moving into the atmosphere of a city, and even a small university is a bit of a shock for me. I can't imagine being anywhere else for college, though.
