Grand Canyon University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Joanna

I wish that someone would have told me a little bit of what to expect. When I first attended GCU I felt so stressed out I was super overloaded with homework. It was about the thing that ate me up inside the most the stress! Not only that but I didnt know how to work their online program the loudcloud was my worst nightmare!

Jody

How and where to apply for more scholarships.

Kelsi

How to utilize career services for after graduation.

Marina

Time-management was very important during the school year, one thing that I struggled to accomplish. I wish I had known before coming to the school the independent work we had to do to become successful in each class. The time to study and work to become better than the previous exam was difficult. The activities and clubs we had, I was unaware of. If I would have known of the clubs, and when they started to meet, and where, I would have been more involved with the affiliations happening during my break time.

I wish I had known that even though I was awarded certain scholarships there is a cap on the amount I am allowed to use.

Nothing, I scouted universities and narrowed it down to 3 & from there I made my decision based on intuition and the integrity of GCU.
