The U.S. Department of Education has revoked a $37.7 million fine previously imposed on Grand Canyon University (GCU), the largest Christian university in the U.S.
The fine, levied under the Biden administration in 2023, was the largest ever proposed against any American university.
Critics claimed the penalty was part of a broader targeting of Christian institutions by Biden’s administration.
The case was dismissed with prejudice, meaning it cannot be refiled, and the Department confirmed GCU committed no violations.
The dismissal and cancellation of the fine occurred under the Trump administration, with no findings or liabilities imposed on GCU.
The Department of Education cancelled a $37.7 million “penalty” against Grand Canyon University.
Who gave the penalty?
The fine was imposed under Biden’s administration in 2023.
It was the largest proposed against any university in U.S. history.
The decision to revoke came down on Friday.
Turns out that the wrongs done to Christians under Biden’s crew are now starting to be righted.

Breitbart reports:
The U.S. Department of Education (DOE) has rescinded a massive fine against Grand Canyon University (GCU), the biggest Christian university in the nation, that was applied under former President Joe Biden’s (D) administration in 2023.
The $37.7 million fine, the largest ever proposed against a university, was revoked on Friday, the Daily Caller reported on Monday.
The outlet said the initial fine “sparked allegations that the Biden administration was targeting and harshly punishing Christian universities.” The case was dismissed with prejudice which means the suit cannot be brought a second time.
The dismissal of the suit and revoking of the fine occurred under the Trump administration.
ADVERTISEMENTIn its statement on Friday, GCU said it had been cleared of any wrongdoing:
In a Joint Stipulation of Dismissal order issued by ED’s Office of Hearings and Appeals, the Department dismissed the case with no findings, fines, liabilities or penalties of any kind. ED confirmed it has not established that GCU violated any Title IV requirements, including the claim that GCU “substantially misrepresented” the cost of its doctoral programs that was alleged by ED officials under the Biden Administration. The Dismissal stated unequivocally that “there are no findings against GCU, or any of its employees, officers, agents, or contractors, and no fine is imposed.”
