Investor FAQs
Grand Canyon Education, Inc. (GCE) was incorporated in 2008 to usher in the next era of Grand Canyon University (GCU) - a small, struggling Christian school that has been in existence in Arizona since 1949. GCU started to grow its online operations in 2004 (formerly known as Significant Education LLC), but lacked a holistic vision for the next 20 years including its brand identity, effective and efficient operations, and system technology.
A management team led by President and Chief Executive Officer Brian Mueller and Chief Operating Officer Dr. Stan Meyer, who each brought 22 years of higher education experience, was installed and a new vision was imparted. To help make that vision a reality, GCE became a publicly traded company in November 2008 under the symbol LOPE on the NASDAQ National Market. Through an initial public offering, GCE obtained the necessary capital to invest in state-of-the-art education technologies, infrastructure and processes that will help grow enrollment at Grand Canyon University to 100,000 students by 2020.
Grand Canyon Education trades on the NASDAQ stock market under the ticker symbol “LOPE.”
