Grand Canyon University Continues to Freeze Its Tuition

 

GCU refinances loan held by GCE

GCU successfully refinanced a note issued in 2018 as part of the purchase of the University related to its transition back to tax-exempt, nonprofit status. Refinancing the note early allows GCU to take advantage of today’s lower interest rates and realize substantial interest cost savings. “The scope of this refinancing is pretty significant in the higher education bond market and speaks to GCU’s solid financial performance in the three years since reverting to our historical nonprofit status,” GCU President Brian Mueller said. “This will help in our efforts to continue to freeze tuition costs on campus, which we have done for 14 straight years, while also continuing to invest in academic infrastructure in order to keep up with the growth of the University.” Press release  Students go to the max in PAC Fifty Honors College students gathered at Canyon 49 Grill on Wednesday night to celebrate the completion of this year's PAC (Professional, Academic and Career) Professional Development Program. Associate Dean Dr. Breanna Naegeli and Director of Operations Dennis Williams thought they had created a maximum point total that no one could reach in the competition, but the top three finishers – Jessica Landes, Riley Ramcke and Daniel Duong – all proved it attainable. Story Slideshow How GCU's course became go-to golf The rave reviews for GCU Golf Course keep coming from everyday golfers and tournament organizers.
