"It was a good experience, although VERY EXPENSIVE for a master's program (which doesnt qualify for grants). Education quality was really good and I never had an issue with any of the educators. However, at times it was difficult to get ahold of people in admin for post graduate paperwork."

"I attended Grand Canyon University for several years, expecting to graduate with the ability to license as a clinical counselor, only to find it impossible to complete to be licensed. Had I known their accreditation would not satisfy state requirements I would have never ever waited my time and all of the money I now owe in student loan debt."

"I really enjoy the online Master's program at GCU. All my professors have been very attentive and really try to help you understand what you are learning. The students constantly encourage each other and give useful feedback. I feel like I am getting valuable knowledge from each class I got through."

"As a student at Grand Canyon University, I was highly impressed with the degree of professionalism and thorough knowledge I received. I went to the school at age 52 after finding out that the bible college I had attended had no recognized accreditation. I thought I was too old to go back to school and too busy as a pastor to even pass the classes but to my surprise I earned my BS in Psychology and my Master's in Professional Counseling. The staff and the faculty was more than helpful. Best of all, I received excellent tutoring to help me through the long forgotten information from my statistics class in high school! Now I am retiring as pastor of my church but was just hired as the crisis counselor at The Salvation Army here in Phoenix, Arizona. I am grateful that both my education and and experience prepared and qualified me for a rewarding career as a counselor helping more people than I was as a Pastor with better pay. Now I have the potential to move up in the company, work with another company or school or have my own practice in this field that I love. After being so disappointed to find out that my degree from my bible college was virtually worthless I was skeptical about attending attending another Christian college but I checked out Grand Canyon University and found it to be sound and fully accreditation! As a pastor of an independent church, I didn't earn a retirement or pension fund so I needed to continue to earn an income for my wife and I. I wasn't too old and it wasn't too late! I still have a future and I plan to help every person who walk into my office and share with them everything I have learned in hopes that it will be a blessing to them and their life! Thank you Grand Canyon University."
