2024-2025 Auburn Wesley Foundation Dorm Application
Due midnight, Thursday, November 16th

AWF Statement of Purpose

Understanding our call to witness in the campus community to the mission, message, and life of Jesus Christ, the Auburn Wesley Foundation fellowship reaches out and receives people in the name of Jesus Christ.  We provide opportunities for our participants to strengthen their relationship with God and to relate to each other in love and acceptance.  Finally, we equip them for vital discipleship and send them out in service and sacrifice.

Expectations

As a resident of the Wesley dorm, you will be asked to live up to four basic expectations. First, we expect you to be a very active part of the ministry, involved in at least a couple of different regular parts of the ministry such as worship or Thursday night Bible studies or Food Pantry, etc. A second expectation is that you will commit to a Christian dorm lifestyle. We don’t set a bunch of rules here; the men of the dorm gather together to set a covenant, and we work to achieve an environment Christ would desire for us. A big part of how we live this out in in the time we spend together in a weekly meeting where we talk about dorm life and support and pray for one another. Third, you are expected to be an ambassador for Christ, both within Wesley and outside of the fellowship. A fourth area is financial. For 2024-25, $450 is expected by the 7th of the month and is paid in advance per month, August through April. In addition, a deposit of $450 in January is needed to secure the room. This deposit will be refunded when you vacate the facility in good condition. Our regular resident period begins in August, the week leading up to classes beginning and runs through finals in the Spring, which fits the University schedule.  Move-in and move-out dates may be given special consideration.

Summer options (for May, June, July) are also available, either for residency at the same monthly rate. There is also the possibility to store some of your belongings in your room and for you to keep your key over the summer for a fee of $75/month. 

There are 9 dorm rooms.

If you have questions about being a dorm guy, email Tony Jeck.

What’s included?

Each Wesley dorm resident has a key to enter from the dorm door up the stairs behind the building, and a separate key to his room. Dorm rooms have one resident to a room, with most rooms sharing a bathroom suite-style. No more than 3 residents share one bathroom. Each room should at least have a twin bed, chest of drawers, and desk included. There is internet (wireless and ethernet) for the dorms, and rooms have central heat and A/C controlled in the hallway. Dorm residents have a shared kitchen with sink, stove, oven, refrigerator, and a microwave. Nearby are the washer and dryer, with a laundry schedule set by the guys. The dorm has its own shared living area with sofas, etc.. The dorm area can be locked off from the rest of the building, which is open to the entire fellowship.

Please fill out the application below. And submit it NO LATER THAN THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16.

Then next step after applying will be an interview with the director, administrator and the current resident manager, that will happen within a couple weeks of applying.
