01 Regulation FD Disclosure

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure. Grand Canyon Education, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), is a publicly traded education services company dedicated to serving colleges and universities. The Company's most significant university partner is Grand Canyon University ("GCU"), an Arizona non-profit corporation that operates a comprehensive regionally accredited university that offers graduate and undergraduate degree programs, emphases and certificates across ten colleges both online and on ground at its campus in Phoenix, Arizona and at 11 off-campus classroom and laboratory sites. Prior to July 1, 2018, the Company owned and operated GCU. On July 1, 2018, the Company sold GCU to an independent, Arizona non-profit corporation (the "Transaction"). As a result of the Transaction, the Company no longer owns and operates an institution of higher education, nor does it directly participate in Title IV programs regulated and overseen by the U.S. Department of Education ("ED") under the Higher Education Act ("HEA"). Instead, the Company operates as an education service company to institutions of higher education that do participate in Title IV programs. Since the Transaction, the Company and GCU have been subjected to a number of government-initiated or government-related legal proceedings. We are taking this opportunity to summarize those matters and highlight certain outcomes recently achieved. The first three matters described below, each of which relate solely to GCU, are included to provide additional background and context for the disclosures relating to the conclusion of the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC" or the "Commission") and qui tam matters involving the Company: GCU's non-profit status. The Transaction was approved by GCU's board of trustees based on its conclusion that it would be in the best interest of GCU's students, faculty and staff for GCU to operate under the non-profit status that it previously held prior to 2004.
