The LOPES Academy at the Cardon Center at Grand Canyon University  is a program that allows people with disabilities to explore the possibility of going to college at GCU without homework, but while being on campus.

​

As a recent graduate of the LOPES Academy at the Cardon Center's inaugural cohort, I can say this program is life-changing. I loved every minute of the two hours we had on campus at GCU. There are just too many favorite memories to pick from but one of my favorites was participating in graduation with fellow GCU students from the College of Humanities and Social Sciences.

​

For a year and a half, I worked as the LOPES Academy Alumni Relations Specialist as part of the LOPES Academy team. I planned many unforgettable events like game days on campus, a 1 year graduation celebration for Cohort (group 2023) and organized events in partnership with GCU Athletics.
