Student Service Teams like Student Success, Disability Resources, Career Services, Student Life, Inclusive Development, and the Student Counseling & Wellness are here to care for you with empathy and holistic support on your academic journey. Learn more about the care and resources of each team below.
Diversity and Inclusive Development
Multnomah is committed to fostering an environment where every student, of any age, race, nationality, gender, socio-economic status, ability, or faith denomination belongs and is a valued part of our community. Consistent with our core values, we aim to develop an intentionally diverse Christian academic community. Diversity, of course, is not an end in itself; rather it is a means to the loft goal of cultivating a healthy educational environment. Faculty, staff, and students partner together to develop opportunities to honor diverse voices and perspectives and grow in embracing the full Imago Dei.
Care Team
The Care Team is an interdisciplinary team of university personnel working together to both proactively and responsively care for students at Multnomah. We want Multnomah to be safe for all students and work hard to support the holistic health of the Multnomah Community. If you are concerned about the well-being of a student, please feel free to reach out to the Care Team.

The Care Team is not for emergencies.
If there is an immediate threat to a student (either through self-harm or interpersonal violence) or the community, please call 911 and then notify Campus Safety at (503) 251-6499.
If you believe a student needs immediate psychological help, you may call the Multnomah County Crisis Line
at (503) 988-4888.
Veteran Resources
Veterans Resources work with the guidance and care of the Diversity and Inclusive Development Department. We realize that Veterans have unique needs and we seek to help them find a home in our community of care.
For more on Veteran Benefits, please contact the Office of the Registrar.
We recognize that Veterans often struggle to find a community that understands them and their unique needs. Many Veterans are also non-traditional students that are older with jobs and/or families. At Multnomah University, we seek to foster a community for our military veterans while providing access to resources, services, educational benefits, and connections across the campus.
The Veterans Resource Center (VRC) is a dedicated place on the Portland campus designed to support student-veterans. Connect with other student veterans, meet, study, or just relax in our dedicated space focused on providing veterans a place to call their own.

Campus Safety and Prevention
For any safety emergencies or concerns, you may ever experience, text or call the Campus Safety Office at (503) 251-6499.
The safety of our students isn’t just a priority—it’s the first priority at Multnomah. Our safety officers are on duty 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year to ensure the security of every single student. Our safety officers are licensed by the Oregon Department of Public Safety, and their dedication to a holistic and culturally-sensitive approach to campus safety has offers Multnomah students confidence and peace of mind.
Office of the Registrar
The Office of the Registrar is your destination for everything from detailed course information to guidance on the best classes to take for your degree—or for your own curiosity—to the most technical details about your student records.
Library Services
Whether you need a quiet place to study or are looking for a text to help you with your research project, Mitchell Library is where Multnomah students get work done—and where we curl up with a good book.
Food Services
Every meal here is more than a necessary step in a day– it’s a chance to connect over conversation and to expand your horizons, with culinary options for all tastes. Each week, The Mane Hall offers a themed dinner—a unique opportunity to gather with the entire Multnomah community. And don’t forget Roger’s Café, where just about everyone at Multnomah catches up with friends over food favorites and a delicious cup of coffee.
The Student Accounts Office partners with the Financial Aid Team. The Student Accounts team can answer any questions you have about paying for school. They will help you set up payment plans and processes your online and mail payments.
