Orientation Frequently asked questions:

What if I miss orientation?

Orientation is an important and mandatory part of your preparation to attend Gonzaga University. Missing even one day could result in you missing important information about your classes and may result in a delay in your registration. If you have an urgent situation that requires you to miss orientation, please contact student.services@gonzagaglobal.org.

When do I get my class schedule?
Your schedule will be available for you to view in Zagweb around the beginning of August. All first year students are registered by Academic Advising for their first semester.

Student Health and COVID-19

Before arriving in Spokane, please complete your Health profile using this link. (You will need to set up your Zagweb account first).

COVID-19 Information
All Gonzaga University students are required to be vaccinated against COVID 19. Only students with medical reasons or sincerely held religious beliefs may waive the requirement.

You can receive a COVID 19 vaccination in Spokane for free.

Arrival and Quarantine

Fully Vaccinated students: 

  • If you are fully vaccinated with a WHO approved vaccine, you will not need to quarantine. This means you can arrive in Spokane for the original move-in date on August 22nd. You will need to take a COVID 19 test within 3 days of arriving.

Unvaccinated students:

  • If you will not be fully vaccinated before you arrive in Spokane, you will need to quarantine for 7 days with a negative COVID-19 test (10 days with no test or a positive test). Quarantine housing is available for students living on-campus at a nearby hotel.
  • If you will need to quarantine, please plan to arrive on August 12th.
  • The cost of quarantine housing is around $30 per day to cover your meals, which will be provided by on-campus dining. You will not need to pay extra; the cost for meals will be covered by your Bulldog Bucks in your meal plan.

When you have finished your quarantine, you will be able to move into your on-campus accommodation.

To request quarantine housing, please email student.services@gonzagaglobal.org with your name and student ID number, or speak to your enrollment counselor. You will also need to submit your arrival details.

Submitting your vaccine documentation

We ask that you upload your documentation as soon as possible. The process to upload your status is easy: Visit the Student Vaccination Portal and use your ZAGWEB username and login to upload your documents. You can provide a screenshot from a phone app, or a scanned paper document. Please have the information translated into English.

COVID 19 Frequently Asked Questions:

What if I receive one dose at home in another country, but still need another dose?
In this case, you would not be fully vaccinated and would either need to receive your second dose (at this time, Pfizer or Moderna may be accessible in Spokane), or you would need to start the vaccination process over again with an available vaccine.
If I am not fully vaccinated yet, can I attend my classes?
If you are not fully vaccinated you will need to quarantine upon arrival in Spokane. See Arrival and Quarantine section above. After your quarantine period, and until you are considered fully vaccinated, you may attend your classes in person by wearing a mask and social distancing.
I had COVID 19. Do I need to get the vaccine?
The CDC says yes, you should still get a COVID-19 vaccine even if you’ve already had the virus.
