"After completing my BSN through Grand Canyon University, I decided to continue on the path to nursing leadership and improving nursing care by obtaining a MBA/MSN degree. This required for me to research different universities and their respective programs. Comparatively, GCU came out ahead. It offered many discounts that made a graduate degree affordable, and offered convenient, online coursework. GCU ranked very high in how it compared to other notable MSN/MBA programs. Currently, I am almost halfway through my dual degree and once more GCU is making this nurse’s dream a soon-to-be reality."
