Essential Information for Parents
New Student Orientation is not just for students; it’s for parents, too! On August 18, GCU will offer a separate orientation for parents, encouraging them to become more familiar with the campus community and services we offer.
Parents speak with faculty and staff and meet with students who have experienced what GCU has to offer. It is the perfect opportunity for them to connect with the campus and to have all their questions answered.
GCU does not provide overnight accommodations for parents. However, we have secured a block of rooms at the following establishment:
Ramada Inn & Suites
2373 State Highway 9
Toms River, NJ 08753

Please refer to the block for “GCU Orientation” when booking. Reservations must be made by July 18, 2008 to qualify for the discounted rate.
