Freshman: I've heard great things about Grand Canyon University! Some of my friends who have attended the school have raved about the friendly and supportive community, the beautiful campus, and the wide range of academic programs available. From what I understand, the faculty and staff at GCU are committed to helping students succeed, both academically and personally, which is really important for a positive college experience. Additionally, GCU offers a lot of opportunities for students to get involved in extracurricular activities and leadership roles, which can be a great way to make new friends and build valuable skills. Overall, I think Grand Canyon University is a great choice for students who are looking for a supportive and engaging college experience.... Read 10,188 reviews

Freshman: Overall I think my student child would have preferred to be in Tempe, although housing seems better. Access to classes in proximity to dorms is great. Parking is limited & pricyley. Cafeteria comfort level ok. The AC wasn't working the last few weeks and requesting carryout costs 6.00! Finally, talk of a plethora of scholarship money out there easily accessible to the ASU website is true. Yet, when applying not a single confirmed positive hit has been reveived. (Still applying and for my student as well. ) Seems that a lot scholarships have strict qualifications, and for Pell grant recipients. However, if Pell grant earners have free money, why would they be prioritized to receive even more free money for college. The system seems unfair. College costs and fafsa awards are not geared for hard working middle /working class families. Rather they're punished by having to take out large loans and not prioritized equally for scholarships.... Read 625 reviews

Sophomore: ASU online is a self-paced learning environment. Professors upload pre-recorded lecture videos and assignments on Canvas, there is no set time that a student must log in to class. While I mentioned that the course work is self-paced, there is still deadlines to be met. My greatest struggle with this was time management. As a Starbucks shift supervisor, I work around 35-40 hours weekly. It was recommended by my academic advisor to allocate around 20 weekly hours per class. Professors were accomodating, help center was open 24/7, and there were so many resources available for online students. I struggled to practice self discipline and motivation, as no one was there to hold me accountable. Despite my struggles in time management and discipline, I was extremely satisfied with my experience in virtual learning! One improvement I'd like to see is an increase in student interaction. Online school can be isolating, even more so when you have no interactions with other students.... Read 220 reviews

Alum: I really enjoyed getting my education from University of Phoenix - Arizona! The staff was wonderful and very understanding. I was actually given a chance to do it right. I still had rules I had to follow, and the work was sometimes challenging. But who wants to be given a degree? Nobody, people want to earn them. I am thinking about going back to finish with my Bachelor's degree.... Read 108 reviews

Senior: Outstanding institution of learning. My BA in Government (Legal Studies) will be awarded to me this July. I have to add that when it comes to promptly responding to queries, both Myong, the university counselor, and Marciel, my student services counselor, have been superb! A simple outline that includes all the knowledge required to successfully complete the class serves as the class's program. If you devote the necessary time and effort, you can earn your degree. I will admit that occasionally not enough input is given after assignments have been assessed for complete credit. Although it will take a little longer if you speak with the educators personally, they can give you more details about those scores.... Read 162 reviews
