Judge dismisses Grand Canyon U lawsuit seeking more COVID-19 aid - Natalie Schwartz, Higher Ed Dive

A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit Thursday brought by Grand Canyon University, a Christian college in Arizona with a massive online education presence, that alleged the school didn't receive all the coronavirus relief funds to which it was entitled. In the lawsuit, Grand Canyon University said it should have received millions more in funding because the IRS lists the college as a nonprofit. However, the U.S. Department of Education considers Grand Canyon University a for-profit university for the purposes of distributing federal student aid after refusing in 2019 to grant it nonprofit status.
