Overnight Information
To make the time on campus more complete, students are invited to stay overnight with a current student host in a residence hall. Overnight visits will be available Friday, February 17, Saturday, February 18 or Sunday, February 19. We may be able to accommodate a limited number of students for multiple nights, if necessary, and students spending multiple nights on campus will most likely be assigned the same overnight host. Overnight visits are free of charge and all meals will be provided.
Students must make their overnight request on the Competitive Scholarship Day RSVP form.
You will most likely sleep on the floor of your host’s room and will need to bring a sleeping bag, pillow, towel and personal items. You may wish to bring a bed roll/mattress pad. If you cannot bring your own sleeping items, you may request a bed pack (sheets, blanket and pillow) from the Office of Admission. Please contact us at 800.640.2287 or admission@linfield.edu.
All student overnight guests must sign an overnight visitor contract. You are welcome to print it out and bring the completed copy with you to campus. Extra copies will be available at the time of check in.
We are unable to accommodate parents or families for overnight arrangements in the residence halls. A listing of local hotels and bed & breakfasts may be found at www.linfield.edu/sleeptight.
