Earlier this year, Grand Canyon University launched a new Learning Management System (LMS) for students and faculty. As a result, the University will now be archiving courses in lc-ugrad3.gcu.edu on July 15th, 2019. We recommend saving any old course materials, assignments, and eBooks you wish to keep.
Grand Canyon University’s online learning management systems are specifically intended to host classrooms for current and recently completed classes. Student access to classes will be removed five (5) weeks following the course end date. It is the responsibility of each student and faculty member to keep copies of all files uploaded to the online learning management system. The University is not responsible to make course content or files submitted to the online learning management system available to students or faculty members once the class has been removed.
If it has not yet been five weeks since your course ended, you will still be able to access it online. The steps for accessing previous courses are different depending on the specific LoudCloud environment you took the class in.
You can access your previous courses in LoudCloud for up to 5 weeks after the course has ended by selecting the title of your course to the right of your name. A drop-down menu will appear with a list containing all of your past LoudCloud courses. Click the previous course that you would like to access to enter the course.
Occasionally, we will archive a LoudCloud instance and start all new courses in a new website. If your previous courses do not show up in this drop-down menu, they may be in a previous instance of LoudCloud.
The most recent archive dates are listed below:
- lc-grad2.gcu.edu was archived on 7/7/2017
- lc-ugrad1.gcu.edu was archived on 8/17/2017
- lc-trad1.gcu.edu was archived on 11/27/2018
