 " GCU provides a wealth of academic resources for academic success. The structure of the online courses are good for returning students. The downside is that there is minimal instruction or interaction from some of the online professors. "

 " The campus is very pretty; it feels like the downtown of a city. Some students complain about the student portal being difficult to use, but I personally haven't had trouble. The religious aspect of the school isn't pronounced in all classes, though some professors may have biblical quotes or optional prayer times before class. There is also a mandatory religious worldview class in the curriculum. "

 " Although, GCU is one of the popular universities in Arizona there are opportunities of improvement. The student service advisors could offer more aid to online students such as, pointing us in the right direction to apply for scholarships. This university should be open to listening to ideas for instance, as an online student our only option of buying our books are e-books. However, some students prefer the physical book and to obtain this is an extra cost out of pocket. Even though, GCU is a Christian based university they do not overpower the studies with the culture allowing anyone the opportunity to study. For anyone looking to further their education and does not see how they could manage a full-time job and children or those who need a more flexible schedule I would recommend GCU online campus.

 " GCU is a great school, especially if you want to learn more about Christianity and how it plays into all aspects of live. But even if religion is not your main focal point GCU is a great school. It can be tough making friends when you live off campus, but after a while you’ll find your people. If you go to office hours even the toughest classes like chemistry 2 are manageable. "
