Grand Canyon University
ABOUT GRAND CANYON UNIVERSITY :
Welcome to Grand Canyon University, Arizona's only private Christian University. This is an exciting time to become a part of GCU because they are redefining faith-based education in America!
STUDENT LIFE:
At Grand Canyon University, they’re dedicated to helping you grow spiritually. In addition, they believe high moral character and personal integrity make you who you are…and no other university integrates all those into its academics, student service, and campus life better than GCU. As a Christian university, their focus is to provide a college environment that supports your spiritual and educational growth.
HISTORY :
The University's been around since 1949. It's one of Arizona's fastest growing private, Christian Universities. GCU offers over 60 degree programs to choose from in just about any area you might be of interest. Their degrees, anchored in their Christian heritages, are highly respected by industry leaders and employers prefer their graduates.
INSIDE CGU:
Phoenix has more than 300 days of sunshine offering you the opportunity to venture outdoors and see its expansive parks, rivers, lakes, hiking trails, bike paths, and sunsets you won't believe!
You'll have the chance to attend major league sports all year long, including football, baseball, hockey, men's and women's basketball, and arena football as well as NASCAR events at Phoenix International Raceway. Phoenix is also home to the annual FBR golf tournament and Parada Del Sol rodeo.
Phoenix has symphony orchestras, ballet and theater companies, and comedy clubs. You can attend concerts by renowned musical artists -- everything from rock, hip-hop and country, to jazz, opera and classical and touring shows by Broadway companies round out the entertainment scene.
If that's not enough for you, you're less than a six-hour drive from the beaches of Los Angeles, San Diego and Rocky Point, Mexico. Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport is served by most major airlines, so several hundred flights a day can take you home, or bring friends and family to you!
THE POWER OF VISION:
Grand Canyon University has excelled in its mission of providing student-focused, academically challenging, Christian higher education to a diverse community since 1949. The key to remaining effective, relevant, and vital within the ever-changing educational market is a solid strategic plan and the vision to power it forward!
GCU is located in the heart of Phoenix and has long been referred to as an oasis in the desert. Architects have been contracted and plans are underway to complete this vision by transforming the campus into a beautiful garden environment. They are expanding their programs, upgrading their technology, and renovating their campus.
Check back often for updates and pictures on the progress of this exciting transformation!

MISSION STATEMENT :
