			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4><span style="color: #666699;">Founded in 1949, Grand Canyon University (GCU) is Arizona&#8217;s private university. The prestigious Christian university is regionally accredited and is recognized as offering some of the best online education programs in the nation by noteworthy sources including Fortune Small Business, Technology &amp; Learning Magazine, Fox.com, Online Education Database (OEDb), and more.  GCU offers academically challenging online and campus-based bachelor&#8217;s and master&#8217;s degree programs through the Ken Blanchard College of Business, College of Education, College of Fine Arts and Production, College of Nursing and Health Sciences, and College of Liberal Arts. GCU emphasizes individual attention for both traditional undergraduate students as well as the working professional.</span></h4>
<p>GCU&#8217;s more than 25,000 online and traditional students enjoy the best of both worlds – a friendly, traditional campus featuring a rich 60-year-old community built on values-based academics, as well a dynamic online learning platform.  With a generous academic-based scholarship program, the University is dedicated to helping students achieve scholastic excellence while defining their life&#8217;s purpose.  GCU&#8217;s graduation coach teams are dedicated to ensuring that all students have the best experience possible, earning their degrees as efficiently and economically as possible.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.grad2b.com/gcu/"><img class="alignright" src="http://www.grad2b.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/post_id1105_saguaro.jpg" alt="http://www.grad2b.com/gcu/" width="200" height="301" /></a></p>
<p>GCU is located on a lush 95-acre campus in the &#8220;Valley of the Sun&#8221; – Phoenix, Arizona. Campus students enjoy the Olympic-sized pool year-round and a variety of events and activities both on campus and nearby, with an abundance of outdoor activities and entertainment venues easily accessible.  The GCU Antelopes compete in 16 NCAA athletic programs – more than any other university in the state, including men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s basketball, baseball and softball, wrestling, cross country, volleyball, golf, swimming and tennis.  Plans are under way to construct a 5,000-seat events center on campus aimed at supporting the University&#8217;s invigorated men&#8217;s basketball program, conferences, community events and Christian concerts.</p>
<p>Online students are encouraged to enjoy the virtual campus experience combined with the convenience of GCU&#8217;s academically challenging degree programs that fit their lifestyle, with the University&#8217;s online programs consistently ranked nationally in the top ten.  GCU recently was selected from more than 50 schools with the prestigious 2009 ANGEL IMPACT Exemplary Course Award presented by a major online learning system provider.  The award honored GCU&#8217;s creation and integration of a variety of visual enhancements within its College of Nursing and Health Sciences, which include 3D models and simulations, flash movies, and a fresh, new design.</p>
<p>Online students also benefit from GCU&#8217;s commitment to small classes and individual attention.  GCU has bridged the gap between distance and learning with their cohort learning program, in which students advance together as they would on campus through a sequence of core courses in chosen areas.  Lifelong connections and friendships often develop from these cohorts, which can include students from all over the country. Many online graduates enjoy visiting the campus and attending commencement activities when they graduate.</p>
<p>GCU also is recognized by GI Jobs Magazine as a &#8220;military-friendly&#8221; university, offering full-tuition scholarships and degree programs that appeal to retired and active-duty military personnel, their spouses and dependents.  GCU participates in a program that enables GI benefits to be used for private school education, providing attractive options for those interested in expanding or changing careers.</p>
<p>With a stated mission of preparing learners to become global citizens, critical thinkers, effective communicators and responsible leaders, GCU emphasizes and offers opportunities to lead and serve through community outreach activities and mission trips that take students all over the world.</p>
<p>Whether students choose to earn a degree online or on campus, GCU&#8217;s unique, faith-based culture, combined with cutting edge academics, value and service, is a wise choice!</p>
<p>For more information about the University, call GCU&#8217;s Enrollment Department at: 800-486-9907 and ask to schedule a campus visit.  Or, if you can&#8217;t come in person, you can call 1-800-486-7089 and speak directly with a GCU Enrollment Counselor.  <strong><a href="http://www.grad2b.com/gcu/">Learn More!</a></strong></p>
