“At the beginning of the year I was conflicted on where to go to college, I knew I wanted to go to a private school, but I wasn’t sure if I wanted to go in state or out of state. I had toured a few schools in state like Washington State University and Western Washington University and just really hated them and I knew I would not enjoy it there with the weather being so cold and lack of safety. Both of my siblings went to Grand Canyon University in Arizona and absolutely loved it, I was hesitant at first because I didn’t want to copy what my siblings did, I applied anyways and got in with a pretty good scholarship. After this my parents took me down to AZ to visit the school, during this visit I fell in love. Coming home I committed right away; I loved everything about the school. I loved everything it had to offer, the location, the academics and the safety. I am so excited to move in in August and can’t wait to spend the next four there.”
