Pacific University will be welcoming a Peer Evaluation Team from our accrediting body, the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU), to the Forest Grove campus on Oct 8 & 9 for the Mid-Cycle Visit.

Pacific University has partnered with Adventure Without Limits, a local non-profit that facilitates programs designed to be accessible and inclusive for all experience and ability levels! During the Fall 2026 semester we have a wide variety of events available for FREE for Pacific Students, Faculty, and Staff. Register today!

Explore Pacific University with the Student Engagement and Inclusion Pacific University Passport! Attend a program or stop by each of the 10 highlighted Forest Grove Campus Resources to find the lockbox, solve the puzzle, and stamp your passport! If you turn in your passport to AuCoin 126 by December 4th at 12pm, you’ll receive Boxer Swag.

Are you a current Pacific student looking for part-time roles? Come to the annual Fall Work & Service Fair on September 22nd, 2026! The fair will take place at the UC from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. Opportunities will range from part-time on campus roles to local non-profit organizations openings, or fully remote positions.

You are invited to join us as we kick off our week celebrating Pacific’s 177th anniversary of its charter! Stop by on either campus to enjoy cookies with President Jenny Coyle, pick up some Pacific swag, and snap a selfie with Boxer.
