George Fox University

Undergraduates: 1,890

Total Students: 3,520

Despite our big reputation, George Fox students benefit from the advantage only a smaller school can provide. This includes a 13-to-1 student-to-faculty ratio – a ratio that’s nearly half that of larger institutions. Our average class size is 20 students, and most classes cap at 50 – a stark contrast to the 200-person lecture halls at most state schools.

Our size also allows greater access to experiential-learning opportunities, such as independent research guided by faculty mentors through the Richter Scholars Program. As one of only 11 universities nationwide accepted in the program, George Fox has supported such research as cell growth and cycle control in breast cancer, efficient GPS push models for mobile computers, and the effect of stereotype threat on perceiving emotions.

Wouldn’t you love it if each of your professors knew your name and your story?

Our 13-to-1 student-to-faculty ratio translates into the individualized attention and intellectual interaction that meaningful scholarship requires. Close academic relationships between faculty and students often result in customized internships and independent study courses, both of which are enhanced by the resources of the greater Portland area, where a multitude of cultural and employment opportunities await.
