Student Life
Your GCU
experience is
yours to define.
Some of the best times of your life take place during college. The more you get involved, the happier those years will be. Choose from 40+ clubs and organizations to ignite your passions and interests or start your own. Hone your leadership skills. Hit the beach or a tennis ball. Bowl on campus with friends. Explore New York or Philly. Volunteer abroad or in the community. Hold a bake-athon. There’s something for everyone!
Hear us Roar
GCU Lions are super serious about their athletics. Just ask our 300 student-athletes competing in 15 NCAA Division II varsity sports in the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC). For fitness and fun, our state-of-the-art Wellness Center is designed for physical fitness, athletic excellence, and environmental awareness. All across campus, you’ll see fields, facilities, and students upping their game on their own or with their teammates. Go Lions!
