"Record Fine Imposed on Grand Canyon University for Tuition Deception"
Grand Canyon University, the largest Christian university in the United States, is facing a record fine of $37.7 million from the U.S. Education Department for allegedly misleading students about the cost of its graduate programs. An investigation found that the university lied to over 7,500 students about the cost of its doctoral programs, with less than 2% of graduates completing programs within the stated range and 78% paying an additional $10,000 to $12,000. The Biden administration is cracking down on accountability in higher education, and the fine comes as part of a broader push for transparency and protection of students and taxpayers. Grand Canyon University has 20 days to appeal the fine and must meet new conditions to continue receiving federal funding.
