Linfield College



Deadline Extension

Linfield has granted an extension for first-year applicants to submit their matriculation fee and confirm their enrollment for fall semester to June 1. The matriculation fee is refundable until June 1. If students are uncertain regarding the financial commitment, or have had a change in their financial situation, we invite them to contact the Office of Financial Aid at 503-883-2225 or finaid@linfield.edu to discuss their options and award offer.
We are also still accepting applications for first-year and transfer students, as well.

New Webinars

We look forward to hosting the following upcoming virtual programs. Please share these opportunities with your students. We also invite you to attend, as well, should your schedule permit. All programs will start at Noon Pacific time and last for 90 minutes. Click on the link to register.

If you wish to schedule a virtual school visit with a Linfield admission counselor, please contact your assigned counselor. Their contact information is listed below.

Campus Video Tour

If you need a quick refresh in your day, and to see campus from some new angles, check out our latest video of campus: a compilation of drone footage from throughout the year.
Our full campus video tour hosted by our student tour guides is still available, too.

COVID Updates

Linfield continues to monitor conditions surrounding COVID-19. The Oregon Governor's office, in collaboration with local health authorities, will ultimately establish timelines for returning to in-class teaching. However, our planning envisions Linfield University* opening on campus this fall with our professors teaching academically intensive classes in an environment of support and collaboration, which is the hallmark of our education. How this may look, we don't know; but Linfield's president, Dr. Miles K. Davis, along with a team of others are considering several options, all which include a commitment to social distancing. Safety for our community of students, faculty and staff is paramount. We will work to assure that in everything we do, from spacing in classrooms to frequent cleaning throughout campus.
For students still a year or more out from their college decision, we understand that the end of this school year has been disruptive to their educational progression and college search. We will be flexible over the coming years with courses without letter grades, and will continue to offer a test-optional path to admission.
We will continue to update you as we all process through this together. You may also check for updates on our COVID FAQ pages. Of course, we look forward to talking with you personally about any of your questions. I encourage you to connect with me, or with Patrick Wilson, the admission counselor assigned to your school, via email at patrick.wilson@linfield.edu.
