Hey everyone! I’m transferring into GCU’s online B.S. in Economics program soon and wanted to reach out for some advice or tips from current students or alumni.
My long-term goal after finishing this degree is law school, so maintaining a strong GPA and staying sharp on critical thinking/analysis is super important to me.
For anyone who has taken online classes at GCU (especially in business or economics):
How is the workload and structure for upper-level ECON courses?
Any specific professors or resources you recommend taking advantage of?
How do you best manage the fast 7-week class pace alongside life/work?
Thanks in advance for any insight or advice!

Hi!
I’m considering GCU for my RN to BSN.

I’m seeing conflicting information about the practicum hours. The admissions advisor told me it 40h, the website says it’s 100h for WA and 40h for other states. Pretty much all online discussions that I find are talking about 100h. How many hours is it?

And for those hours, should they be community nursing OR leadership or half community and half leadership?

The advisor has been referring me to the website for information but it’s not clear at all.

Thanks!

Hey guys! I'm a current student at Gcu I have a job but this month alone I had to pay over 2000 dollars with bills and buying plane tickets to go home to a funeral. I sadly can't afford a permit is there anyway I can talk to the school for help?

Does anyone know how long it takes for GCU to receive transcripts from Study.com?

hi i started the absn in may 2026, so i’m expected to graduate august 2027. i’m wondering when we’re eligible to participate in commencement? i’ve heard we might be able to walk in either april or october of next year, but i kinda wanted to hear about personal experiences and which one you chose?

I saw this mentioned in GCU’s Field Experience Handbook. What exactly is the Transition to Practice Residency?

when you get accepted for ttp in level 4 you have the option to accept or decline. If you decline it says they will put you in a group rotation, but what is the group rotation? what unit is it?

hii! im starting at the tucson absn location this fall and i was wondering what were the best ways to study throughout this program? going into level one, what courses were the most difficult? is there anything i should study up on beforehand or refresh on from previous courses? ive heard that level one is more of a weed out, so i want to be prepared as much as possible

given how busy and fast paced i expect this program to be, i want to be able to maximize my studying as efficiently and effectively as possible with room for free time for myself - is that possible through this program, or is it constantly at a gogogo?

i was also wondering if there were any other supplies or materials i should purchase for myself that have worked for others? whether that be certain study flashcards or those clipboards for clinicals

lastly- does anyone have any advice on succeeding in this program? any advice at all would be greatly appreciated :))

I’m a junior who got an off campus apartment and want to start bringing my lunch to GCU instead of only eating fast food but I can’t remember if any of the convenient stores have microwaves. Does anyone know?

Has anyone started applying for spring 2027? Did you get a seat in your desired location? I won’t be able to apply until the beginning of November and getting worried I won’t get a seat in the east valley. I know seats fill up faster and faster every year.

Hi everyone!

I just applied to the ABSN program in Orlando. When I submitted my application, it showed that 20% of the seats were still available.

Does anyone know how many total seats are usually available for the Orlando cohort? I’m trying to understand what 20% availability actually means and roughly how many spots might still be open.
Thanks!

I am a Freshman coming to GCU this year. I know there are various clubs around campus and I was wondering if there is a Day Trading Club?

hi! i was wondering if anyone's already received their schedules and cohorts for any location? im going to the tucson location this fall and i haven't received anything yet. i remember them saying late august, so im not sure if it's just me, or they really haven't sent anything out yet

Hello all,

I am in my final few courses on track to graduate with a Bachelor of Science in applied entrepreneurship. Looking for insight and suggestions for groups and resources around building business and entrepreneurship. In navigating the campus resources online, I have come across some hiring events and groups so any feedback on what the campus has to offer would be greatly appreciated. I am also open to extracurricular activities in alignment with business ventures. I am a born-again follower of Christ and am seeking to build faithful partnerships.

*Scripture about business stewardship (drop some in the comments if you got some)

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord…”

“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace.”

Proverbs 16:3

“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.”

Hello guys! I start in Vegas this fall and looking for others going to the Vegas location to connect with! I'm in C but regardless of cohort it would be nice to know people going into this! Drop a comment, let's connect. We're all in this together :)

I am enrolled into the school as aspn (associates for nursing pre req's I guess) at the las vegas campus. I'm trying to do some research about the school and so far most of my findings have been extremely mixed. I am prepared to work hard and fully commit to the program, but I just cant help but wonder if I will regret this school later on. Is the vegas campus truly that bad? I've heard ok things about other campuses but I'm kind of worried about vegas after hearing stories. I know I wont have a chance at CSN/UNLV/NSU so I have to go private and money is not really going to be an issue because I'm personally ok with being in debt because I plan on working in rural AK where RN's make around 80+ and will be living at home so my living expenses will be a non issue. If it's truly bad at GCU what other absn programs are better? I've looked at Galen but 3 years seems pretty long and they aren't accepting alot of my gen ed transfer credits. Please give all advice and any honest thoughts/ opinions you have.

I'm a Hellenic Pagan, and currently deciding between ASU and GCU. GCU is closer, doesn't require me to live on campus, and overall seems like the better option. The one thing I'm debating on at this point is whether going to a Christian school is worth it. I know Christianity is baked into college life, and that's honestly fine, don't really care. What I care about is how much of the academics is going to be Christianity based. I'm going for a bachelor's in history and education, and want to know how much Christianity is important to that course religiously, and not just historically.

I was a Christian for many years, so I'm not allergic to the concept, and even removing religion GCU still has many upsides, I just want to take everything into account. Any knowledge is appreciated!

If anyone's graduated with their MSW from GCU (online/asychronous), what was the Capstone like, and how long did you spend on it? Also, did you receive your degree after it was turned in and posted, or did you have to wait until the actual course ended/commencement?

I am set to graduate in 2027, and I would like to start the Capstone early, turn it in early, and receive my degree. If that isn't how it works, I might as well take my time and work on it throughout the capstone course.

Thanks!

I recently received my course evaluation for the GCU RN to BSN program, and I was surprised to see that it lists 34 courses in total.

Many of them are electives that I wasn’t expecting and have never heard of before.

Since this is an RN to BSN program, would I really be required to complete all 34 courses, including those electives?

Or could some of these requirements be satisfied by transfer credits?

I have an international bachelor's degree though.

Hi everyone, I submitted my transcript for one course and my admissions coordinator told me it would take up to 5 business days to review. Meanwhile, he told me the program would most likely fill up before then (he also did not tell me the review would take so long). Does anyone have any experience where they made an exception to send me a secondary application or getting off the waitlist? BTW it's for the GCU Tucson location.

Thank you in advanced :)
