I chose GGU after I visited for Admitted Students Day. I was blown away by all the
services GGU Law offers students during school, in Bar preparation, and in the job
search before and after graduation. Also, the Admissions counselor I worked with was
amazing; he answered my near-daily calls and emails as I navigated a career-change
and a move across the country.
