DeVry University outsourcing personal details of students to overseas comapny

This University has signed a contract with an outsourcing company at Texas for admission process and all details are leaked out. Why this Texas company has shifted its operations from US to its Indian subsidary? The contacting company for Liveperson chat operations should be stopped immediately. This is the Frontline Story foe any newspaper while Obama is giving out hope on saving our jobs. Its too rediculos! ! The contracting people Ms Holly and Ms Tiffany should be sent to prison for hiding this truth from the students that they are actually providing their confidential information to Indian Workers! A Bull ### and a complete Havoc! A shame on american education system!

I work at a call center in Texas for DeVry and most of what our Indian counterpart was hired to do has been taken away. The only thing that they still handle for our company is the online chat and grading the calls that we in Texas make and receive. And as far as the company that I work for is concerned, the only information that I or anyone in India has access to is your name, phone number, address, and email address. (Along with a record of anyone who has tried to contact you) And that's only if you've requested information or applied recently. Our job is to transfer to an advisor if we can or to a different department depending on your needs. I'm not defending DeVry or outsourcing because there is definitely a lot I don't agree with. I just wanted to share what I know.

DeVry University professor grading

Hello my complaint about DeVry University that involves an online Professor's Grading Issue.

I submitted my week 3 assignment for SEC 440 class 8 hours late and the next day when grades were posted I was shocked. He took 50% off for being late. I considered this not acceptable so I Emailed him and was shocked by his response. He told me that he has Discretion when grading late assignments, however I believe what he did is outside the boundaries of his authority. Typically DeVry Professor's whether online or campus take 10% off per day late. This was not even 1/2 a day late.

I submitted my week 5 assignment for SEC 440 class a day early. I looked at the grade in the Gradebook and was shocked. He took of 20 points because my assignment 600 words instead of 800. however the 600 gave the basic information that was required for the assignment. Personally his Doctorial Candidacy should be challenged and his IEEE membership should be under review

The only thing unfair about DeVry courses is that getting a 100% is the same as getting 90%. No points for applying yourself. This has happened for at least 12 courses now!

You're lucky he even gave you 50% credit - in the real world, 8 hours late means not landing a lucrative contract for your employer - guess who gets fired?

DeVry University educational loans incorrect charges

This is a scam the degree is worthless then toilet paper. The financial aid department won't give a copy of the cost for the credits and the professors fail you so you redo the same class over and over each time charging more for an education by the time I graduate I will collecting social security and then I would have to use that to pay the over charged loans.

My complaint will be forwarded to US Department of Education.

What? That makes no sense. The cost per credit hour is listed right on DeVry's web site. As for "the professors fail you so you do the same class over and over", you're saying that the professors just failed you, for no reason at all, even though you completed all your homework and projects and passed all the tests?

Nice try.

DeVry University failure to refund money

It has been one month, and I still have not received a refund of my $50 application fee from DeVry for an application I put in to Keller. There policy and application says that you may request a full refund of your application fee if you change your mind within 10 days of applying. Well, on day four, I requested a refund of my application fee to my debit card because I decided I could not go $30k into debt at Keller. I kept e-mailing customer service without ANY response at all. And still no refund to my debit card. Finally, after three weeks I e-mailed the President of the college and filed a complaint with the local BBB. Turns out they had JUST sent me a refund check via Fed Ex and required an in-person signature for delivery. They didn't think to ask me if I work during the day (which I do), so needless to say Fed Ex could not deliver the check and returned it to them. I kept asking them to just credit my debit card, since that is where they took the money from, but they said they didn't have the payment tracking number. Ha. So, one month later still do not have my money. Their customer service is POOR. I am sure glad I didn't go to college there. If I am having this much trouble getting $50 returned, I would hate to see what happened if I ran into big problems while attending school there!

There are handful of nutcase liberal democrats who want to end the US Government as it is and turn it into a European style communist state. Does that mean that all Democrats want this? I am sure you will get your $50.00 back just like I am sure that we will remain a free market Representative Democracy. One more thing, did you really send your request on time?

DeVry University unfair billing practices

I graduated from DeVry University over a year ago, and last week, I received a bill for $3500 for outstanding charges to the University. First, the invoice failed to itemize what the charges were for or the original charge date. Second, DeVry won't issue a degree unless you have all of your outstanding balances reconciled before graduation. So why are they finding these mysterious charges now? Finally, DeVry is charging a late fee on top of a high interest rate and large monthly payments for this invoice. After writing a certified letter with evidence proving these charges false, they still have not returned any explanation to the bill. In the meantime, the interest and late fees are mounting up. If this is what they call alumni benefits, I'll pass.

For the record, I do have a life, and I do pay my bills. Until this incident with DeVry, I was debt-free. All that I am asking is for the administrative staff to do their jobs. Instead they are exploiting students to pay for fees and late charges that never existed.

After further investigation, I found out that someone in Financial Aid returned my Stafford loan payment back to the lender instead of paying my tuition bill during my last semester at DeVry. The University denied any wrongdoing, but they finally waived the late charges after weeks of calling the office on a daily basis. I still had to pay for the outstanding tuition, though. Moral of the story: Don't assume anything, always check your statements, and pay cash as much as possible!

I was signed up for a class I completed 3 years ago, two weeks in I was called by the student advisor and told Decry would give me a grant for the class so I wouldn't pay twice for a class that would be redundant to my degree. The grant completed and the class was paid for them the grant fell out. I got a bill for 1778.49 . I was threatened and denied my transcripts and degree. Finally I was able to get the grant reinstated and my transcripts and degree came in the mail. Now 3 months later the grant has fell out again and my credit is being threatened. I receive harrassing calls and outrageous bills in the mail every week. These guys are a bunch of crooks.

I am now about leave devry university Istarted out a few months ago and went through the troubl of making sure I knew how much I would have to pay out of pocket and when I was told my student loans would be enuf accept for 870 some odd dollars 4 time a year wich was fine by me well now I have compleated one semester and the loan wich was 9500 which was suppose to a last a whole year is allready gone and insted of 870ish 4 times a year now they tell me i will have to pay 7200 a year out of pocket or 600 some odd dollars a month out of pocket to stay on course Im going to go to the state university now which is much cheaper 12, 000 a year vrs 24, 000 a year the point of my story is they will say anything to get you to sighn up then later on let yopu find out the reality that you are getting taken for a ride. I was told to expect not to worrie about paying to much out of pocket and that my loand would last up to su and such time and it was all lies. don't waste your money go some ware else, then again if your reading this you probably allready did waste you money at devry. thats how it happened for me.

I sympathize with you on the belated bills from DeVry. Not only was I foolish enough to complete an undergrad degree through DeVry, I continued and completed a Master's degree. What a true waste of time and money. The degrees are near useless. The job placement program is a farce and the finance offices are apparently filled with DeVry graduates as they do not know there ### from a hole in the ground.

Not only did I receive bills after I completed my degrees, I spoke directly to the dean of Finance and was fed a long list of lies and deceit. DeVry, in their lack of infinite wisdom and unethical practices, failed to apply financial aid to one of the semesters from a prior year. Naturally, they can't go back and request payment since the law does not allow this business practice. Well, I was shafted and had to pay the bill. As a matter of fact, I am still paying for their erroneous financial aid practices.

So, I do not recommend DeVry nor any of their associated business offices and representatives. The only true professionals associated with this failure of a university are a handful of professors. I wonder if they actual get paid for their time on a consistent basis? I am sure that the greedy hoards of office and administration execs get their checks.

DO NOT ATTEND DeVry! You will regret your association with that system...Good Luck obtaining a job with a DeVry Degree!

DeVry University college negligence and stratagem

I consolidated all my student loans in 2004 before my graduation, but the DeVry did not release one of the loans indicating that I was still in school. Documents were submitted to have the loan release but DeVry referred to this loan as "In school Status", hence, hindering the consolidated process of my school loans. I am amazed as to why were the other loans release to the consolidator and this loan was not. Attempts were made to have the loan release but the college never released. When I asked why this loan was not consolidated with the others. I was told that this loan slip through the cracks and the college is seeking to recover all the money on this loan. I considered this to be the college's negligence, since I have no control over their finance department. The college reported me to the credit bureau even though it is their policy that all students must consolidate their loans before graduation, and I did graduate in June 2004.
I am calling on the Federal government to introduce regulatory oversight and compliance for all colleges and universities regarding student loans, since most student loans were subsidized for the benefit of the student.

I have had problems with DeVry as well. They seem to make a lot of mistakes and none of the different departments seem to communicate very well. I for one am fed up with dealing with them and wasted 3 years going to school there after high school. I feel I didn't accomplish much and that I would have rather spent amount is student loans I am paying now to go to a campus school worth while. I still don't even have a job or career doing what I went to school for. They've been less than helpful in that area also.

DeVry University unethical business practices

Today I withdrew from DeVry University Online classes. I'm sad to have had to do that because I had great hopes for my education, but a series of issues arose that convinced me DeVry is not as concerned about their students' education as they are about their cash flow.

The first issue concerns their transfer scholarship. I began talking to DeVry in earnest Dec '08 and was told I was eligible for the scholarship ; the requirements are 1 year since graduation and 3.20 or higher GPA. I graduated in June '08 with a 3.92 GPA. I started classes in March '09, and by May I still hadn't heard if I was going to get the scholarship even though I had asked about it every few weeks since January. Each time I was told no word yet. I began to suspect the scholarship was merely a carrot on a stick and they were running out the clock until I was no longer eligible for it, and I told them that's what I had begun to think.

A short time later one of the academic advisors called and told me I had been awarded the scholarship. Then he informed me I would need to take some placement exams for math by the end of the semester. These were 3 remedial math courses that began with an introduction to fractions up through graphing quadratic equations. Nothing had been said about placement exams for math classes until that day, just one breath away from congratulating me on my scholarship. I had been given full credit for the algebra and physics classes I had taken previously, so I was a little surprised to hear I would need to be tested on addition and subtraction of fractions.

I asked why I needed to take the tests, and the advisor said it was because my upcoming computer programming courses required a lot of math. I checked the text books and discovered that wasn't true - there's no real math requirement for learning C++ or Java. Later, when I told him this, he suddenly changed the reason and said it was because some of my credits didn't transfer. His explanation was that the screen I was looking at didn't show the same information as the screen he was looking at, although we were looking at the same screen. If I didn't take the placement exams within two weeks all 3 classes would be required. If I scored high enough I wouldn't need to take that particular class, and I would be allowed to retake the test one time if I failed an exam.

When the results came back he told me I had scored so low I would have to take all 3 classes. I wasn't allowed to know the test score, or which problems were missed. Now anyone who has bought a car from a shady dealer will instantly recognize this trick: they'll tell the customer they'll agree to throw in a free high-powered stereo if he'll buy the car, then they'll jack up the interest rate on the loan a few points.

I told my advisor I thought this was what they were doing and would retake the test, only this time I would be recording every question and answer by screen capture. The next results showed I needed to take only the last class. I didn't contest this because it seemed like a good idea for a review anyway, as I had missed 3 questions.

The next issue was my instructor in Comp 122. He was AWOL most of the course in the discussion area until students began pleading with him to answer their questions. And if you asked him a question he would never answer it directly - he'd give you an answer that has nothing to do with the question. For example: I asked about question 3 in Chapter 6, and he responded with the answer to question 1 in Chapter 5, with no explanation. There didn't seem to be any connection between the two questions, and when I realized the problem it had nothing to do with the procedure I was using - I had made a syntax error.

The third issue is what I consider the most egregious, and ultimately the one that convinced me DeVry has little concern for the education of their students as opposed to their great concern for a steady cash flow from student loans. Two computer programming classes, Comp 122 and Comp 220, use the same book: C++ Programming - From Problem Analysis to Programming Design, 4th edition, by D.S. Malik. At the end of each chapter are several pages of exercises, including programming exercises that require the student to put to practice the programming principles taught in that chapter. The book instructs students to ask their instructor for the source code solutions to the problems if they wish to use it. I asked for the code from the instructor in Comp 122 and was given a list of answers to true/false, fill in the blank, and multiple choice questions that are already given in the back of the book. After repeated requests, the instructor eventually posted a few solutions in the discussion are.

At the beginning of Comp 220 I emailed the new instructor and again asked for the source code. Here's the text of the actual email:

"Hello Mr. ******, nice to see you have practical experience using programming in real world applications. I'm continuing from Comp 122 and would like to know your position on use of the programming exercises at the end of each chapter. The previous instructor would not release the code, but later after discussions with the staff of DVUO he began to post some in the discussion areas. I hope you recognize the value of using programming exercises such as the ones in the back of the chapters, whether they're the exact problems or equivalent problems generated from scratch. I would like access to some of the code whether they're from the book or another source to practice using the theory taught in the class. I will, of course, respect and abide by your decision, but I'd like to know in advance so I can make arrangements if necessary to ensure I'm understanding the material sufficiently to work any of the problems in the programming exercises."

His reply: "Its (sic) a great idea to work through the exercises at the end of (a) chapter. I'll be posting the exercise solutions for the chapters we will be studying in the next day or two. Good to hear from you...Let me know if you have any other questions!"

What he posted was another set of answers to true/false, fill in the blank, multiple choice questions whose answers are already in the back of the book. Notice I asked for source code and he replied with answers that we already have to true/false, fill in the blank, and multiple choice questions. Could it be that an instructor in a computer programming class doesn't know the difference between source code and answers to true/false questions?

After several exchanges back and forth pretending he didn't know what I was asking for, he admitted the following:

"I was in on the conversation about this last term and it came down to a question of copyright infringement. The acceptable use policy for the instructor materials prohibits electronically posting of answer keys to a publicly accessible location; which make sense because the book company does not want the answers freely given out because it spoils the value of the book for instructors that assign and grade exercises from the book. In the case of DeVry, they decided that we could post the answer keys, in part, because we are not 'publicly accessible.'

I have no problem providing the solutions...the best way to learn this material is to study and copy programs that work...

I've checked out the webpage for our book and they do have a link for instructor materials but I need to call and create an account. Its (sic) a tad late so I'll call in the morning.

I'll keep you posted..."

So he had been in the meeting the previous session where, according to him, the publisher decided DeVry could post the source code, and then he states he supports letting students use the source code- even though he'd been refusing to provide it for 6 weeks, and then only after repeated requests on my part to have access to it. And according to the book, the source code is on the Teaching Tools CD-ROM that the instructor has.

August 19th I complained to a faculty staff member about the situation who then researched this issue and was told yesterday or today the following by a member of the online training faculty office:

"Programming exercise solutions and source code are only for the instructors, not for the students. We are not able to distribute any instructor information to the students. DeVry is not the only institution that uses this text, and we would be compromising the use of any quizzes or exams if we were to give this information out. "

Here's the gist of this whole sordid mess: the solutions to the programming exercises that the publisher says are available to the students through the instructor are off limits to DeVry students because DeVry says they're only for instructors' use. The stated reason is that students might send the source code to students of other schools that use the programming examples for homework (DeVry does not use the programming examples for homework or tests). So DeVry is more worried about other schools' homework than they are about their own students (who are paying $550/credit hr, over $60, 000 for a bachelor degree), even though there's nothing preventing students in other schools giving out the very same source code.

I don't believe that explanation. It makes more sense that they don't want students doing too well because then the number of students having to repeat a class would drop off, and so would their income from student loans.
If you want to go to the website for the book I'm talking about and see the notice to students to get the source code from the instructor, go here:

http://oc.course.com/computerscience/malikcpp4e/index.cfm?page=source

To be fair, most of the people I have come into contact with at DeVry are conscientious, considerate, friendly and professional. I don't have a problem with the people, it's the culture and/or the business ethic that allows a company such as DeVry to put revenue above all else. I'm not going to suggest you do or do not hire DeVry to educate you, but if you do there are some things you should be aware of.

When I withdrew today I had a 4.0 GPA, so my dissatisfaction is not because of grades - it's because I could not justify putting all the time and money ahead of me into an organization that refuses to give their students basic tools that the author of the book has spent considerable time creating. And because they refuse to be forthcoming and honest until forced to do so. Every time I was on the phone about that source code issue it made me feel like I would feel if I was on a sidewalk standing still as a pickpocket went through my pants.

What a sad situation. DeVry charges $80+ for "course materials fees" which are really e-books that you could get for a fraction of the price that they charge. As you noted, you pay twice for the book because it used in two classes. Many students are very angry that they are required to pay for ebooks at devry, especially since the format is glitchy...Are they still using the Follett "MyScribe" reader or have they finally contracted with Adobe which is the standard of the industry... and much more secure than the easily hacked MyScribe... That thing froze more often than not, usually during those open book tests...

DeVry University awful place

I attended Devry for a single semester. I realized in the second week when the bills started to arrive that something was not right. They quoted me $50, 000-$60, 000. for a 3-year bachelors program but at over $10, 000. per semester for full time at Devry, the math does not make sense! $30, 000/Year times 3 years = $90, 000. And that's only if you finish in 3 years! I took them to California small claims court and won a $6500. judgment against them (it is easy to do without a lawyer), but they still refuse to pay and they are holding my transcript hostage which has brought my education to a complete standstill as I had to drop out since I cannot obtain any college financing of any type, (loans or grants) until after I get Devry to release my transcript. If you are thinking about going to Devry, do some more research. You will find tons of complaints and lawsuits alleging overcharging and worthless degree value. There has been many class action suits against them and the California Department of Consumer Affairs is working on legislation to force these private colleges to realistic regulations. They are presently unregulated, even here in California whereas any real college in California is regulated by strict guidelines and business code. AVOID Devry University. Go to a real college. Especially here in California we have the best community and state college system in the country. Use it!

I'm down for a class action lawsuit as well.

I don't want to even mention how much debt they have caused me.

Also the credits, they don't transfer, I have 98 credits from them and only 30 transferred into the new school I'm attending, granted I didn't expect all of them, as the degrees are different but, similar.

Anyway, my email is swilliams72@gmail.com please send me info if anyone is going to do a class action.

This is the email sent from the representative from Devry. They did not want to come to court because of a subpoena. Obviously they were scared they would get caught lying so they tried to settle. They commit so much fraud. ...Contact me at RnBsinger75@gmail.com to start a class action lawsuit.

On January 12th, we had sent you an email with attached documents regarding our desire to reach an agreement as this has been a long process for both parties.

Today, we have received a subpoena from you to attend Magistrate Court in Fulton County on Monday, February 22, 2010. We are resending the email below along with the release agreement for you to review. This agreement will bring your account balance to zero ($0).

If you accept, please sign and fax back to me along with dismissing the charges. Please confirm receipt of this email.

Thank you.

Devry, lures people in with their fancy talk. I had a professor my first quarter that i learned more about his family than the course material. He was always recieving phone calls from his business or family during class and was a hipocrate when telling us to turn off our phones. They kept sending me refund checks saying i did not have to pay these refunds back and a year later turn me into collections. Glad i saved the letters they sent me saying i did not have to pay them back. ANYONE want to file a class action lawsuit against Devry for all the lies and ripoffs they present? Let me know. This palce needs to be shut down! The Decatur Ga. campus is a joke and racist they have no clue what they are doing there and there staff and finacial department is a mess. Hell i went through 3 finiacial advisors in 1 year and now none of then work there. They were all fired.

I've heard so many bad things about this school, but I would just like to state my opinion. I think this school is better-suited to "non-traditional" students (over 30) who have children, hold down a full-time job, and wish to improve their quality of life. I am considering attending DeVry, depsite all of the bad press. Why? Because I am over 30, hold a full-time job, and have one child and another on the way. (I am married, by the way, and my husband also works full-time.)

I am currently enrolled in Valencia Community College, and I am a straight-A student. I had every intention of finishing the degree there and continuing to UCF for the bachelor's. Not because I am particularly impresses with the quality of the education, but rather because it is cheap. However, now that I will have two children, and will still have to work full-time, there is simply no way I can handle more than one or two classes per semester. At that rate, it will take 6 or 7 years to get all the way to the bachelor's degree.

I attended DeVry briefly, in 2002. I was young (early 20's), immature, and not ready to handle the responsibilities of college. The classes were challenging. with a lot of homework. The professors were competent and intelligent. We could not skip class; we were required to swipe our student ID's in a time clock at the beginning and end of each class!

I am concerned, of course, that employers would shred my resume upon seeing "DeVry" listed under education. But there has to be even a handful of employers who would not use a person's education as a way to disqualify him or her, but rather would focus on experience and accomplishments in previous positions.

That's my $0.02.

I was a student with DeVry Online ... yes I said was. I had figured out that the financial aid would cover most of the cost of doing my education online but what doesn't get figured is that each year it goes up. Not just the cost of the credit hour (currently $575 per credit at this posting) but the fee's for everything else also goes up. The professors (if you call them that) don't answer all questions, the means of learning is left all on the student to read the book, any type of seminar was done by not teaching about the subject but by telling and showing you how to complete the assignment for the week, and last I had found that most of the instructors were highschool teachers seeking a second income that they could perform at their convienence.

After trying to succeed in this school because I hate to be a quiter, I finally tried to transfer to another school that offered classes $200 less per credit hour than DeVry, only to find out that DeVry had sucked up most of my tuition ($50, 000 worth). This is due to the fact, yes a fact, that they would only recommend that a person working a full time job only take enough credits per semester to get financial aid. Yes there were times when I talked to the right person and could take an extra class at the reduced rate for over 12 credit hours but there were others who would not allow me to register for that many credits.

So as with many other I too believe that DeVry just looks to get money and doesn't provide the class of education that people should get expecially for that type of money. I could've gone to a local private college and only paid #380 per credit hour but chose DeVry over the convienence of having a full time job. I am currently looking for those that have a class action lawsuite against them in hopes of joining or filing my own.

ehh i really don't know what to say about institutions such as devry and UOP, but I've heard divided opinions on it.. My mom is an executive of a small yet successful real estate company in Pennsylvania, but she claims that when she sees UOP of Devry on a resume, she immediately tosses it. I also I have a cousin who got a degree from Devry, and he got a great, well-paying job as a project manager.

Red Bug Warrior is obviously a DeVry Employee, probably one of those admissions advisors that calls people 8 times a day to enroll us into DeVry's mostly worthless and overpriced classes.

The fact is Scott is right. Very little is explained before you enroll. All you hear is one big sales pitch on how great DeVry is and how great your life is going to be when you graduate.

They talk about INTEREST, MOTIVATION and DESIRE. Then they rah-rah us into buying into the dream. It sounds like an Amway commercial! LOL! And if you fall for it, you wiull be in the hole for anywhere from $45, 000 to $75, 000 and no better off than you were before.

And what are the backgrounds of these "Admissions Advisors"? Typically they come from retail sales and telemarketing backgrounds. The best are from Time Share and Vacation Packages sales, pennsytocks, oil & gas and other such things. Most of them don't even have a degree themselves although they will say they do. It's part of their sales pitch. And please understand that although they say they are not "sales people", they are and they are compensated very well for enrolling students. I've heard that some admissions advisors were raised from a starting base of around $30, 000 to over $100, 000 in less than a year and half based on student enrollments. And they tell us they don't get paid for it! BALONEY!

Check the financial pages and you will see that hardly a day goes by without a complaint being made about one or more of these schools. Go to yahoo or any website that allows you to check on publicaly traded stocks and type in any of these symbols: LOPE, ESI, APOL, or DV. Check the news. They are all coming under the fire. The most recent is LOPE.

The SEC has charges against University of Phoenix. School commission is also looking into all of these schools for th e manner that they are compensating recruiters aka admissions advisors and are expected to clamp down on that soon.

Red Bug Warrior's comments look they came right off of a DeVry template. It is too patronizing and transparent. Always the students fault. When will these DeVry people stop paradying management and actually think for themselves?

DeVry University don't believe the hype!

I attended DeVry University from July 2006 to October 2008 and recieved my degree in Business Administration. Well, let me start by saying that DeVry has good teachers and a good curriculum. However, the damn financial aid and tuition is a damn joke and a crazy scam. I'm suggesting to anyone that wants to go to DeVry not to go because there are universities that are so much better in the dealings with their students. DeVry will give you the runaround and no help whatsoever. For the first year my student aid was going fine, but when I decided to be full-time it became a mess and more than I bargained for. The last semester rolled around for me and I was never told that there were strings attached in needing to sign paperwork to get the rest of my financial aid reward. Well so I get a surprise in the mail that says I owe DeVry University $3750 for the rest of the tuition. And I was floored; so I called DeVry only two months after I gradauted and asked for help on this. Well they drugged their feet and strung me along telling me that they were "looking into it". Well December goes by, then January goes by, February, March, and now here's April still no improvement. So I contacted DeVry again after recieving three letters of threatning to turn over to collections and getting a lawyer involved. Finally someone decides to help me only to tell me that it's too late to send any signatures or approvals for the rest of the student aid I was "awarded" for the school year. Now I'm stuck with this damn bill, a job that doesn't even come close to paying me what I need to survive, and student loan debt that gets bigger and bigger by the damn day. Take my advice it's not worth it!

The GAO video you linked showing deceptive recruitment/financial practices does not include DeVry University employees. Since you have filed a lawsuit against DeVry Inc, I suggest you refrain from libelous postings.

Well first let me say that Devry do have great Instructors that really do know a great deal about their field. It's not the classes or the teachers that are a scam. It is the worthless degree's and financial aid scams that is the problem, it is all true about DeVry. I graduated from both Devry University and Keller School of Management and still have not found a job. After talking to career services to get help over and over and over again; I finally talked to a career services advisor who told me and I quote "I see they talked you into a Technical management Degree" Worthless and Network Communications Management Degree".

I graduated with 3.3 GPA from Devry and I graduated from Keller as an honor Student 3.7 GPA. My interviews have been great I have had good feed back. The thing is Technical Management is not a well recognized degree but the advisors will push you into this field by telling you it’s the best choice if you are transferring from another school with a associates degree. I had an associates degree from local community college. Terrible choice don’t listen to them they are scammers and only out to fill a quota for selling bad student loans by any means necessary. Do your research first then go to another school don’t go to Devry or Keller.

Having taught Devry classes, let me tell you where the disconnect is. Most (if not all) of the instructors don't actually work for Devry, they are independent contractors. Therefore, many of them really do care about their students, but have no idea what goes on outside of their classes.

DeVry University fraud and scam

I am a DeVry graduate (2003) who possess a bachelor of science degree in telecommunications management. For starters, I am disgusted that I ever stepped foot in a classroom at that boot-leg institution.

When I started at DeVry, I was fresh out of high school and I held on to the fallacy that I would be making big chunks of money when I completed my degree their. I was 17 years old and did not have a good family structure (I was pretty much emancipated at this age). With no proper guidance and not much assistance from my high school counselor in terms of picking the right school, I fell for the DeVry sales pitch. Looking back over it all, I should have saw the writing on the wall. A few people who I mentioned DeVry to as my college choice recommended that I look into other schools, but they did not go into the reasons.

As I reached the end of the line within my curriculum back in late 2002/ early 2003, I really saw the reality of my education decision. Upon graduation, the job market was not that great, but I was determined to look for employment anyway. I tried for along time to find full-time employment in my field, but without the work experience and of course a degree from an institution with a bad reputation, I was unsuccessful in my job search. I only recall meeting with a career services advisor once and after that, the lady was not much help.

Bottom-line, I was sold a worthless degree that I worked my behind off for. There were many hours invested into studying, completing projects, and writing papers. If I had known better, I would have went to another school within the first year of starting their to minimize my loss.

I finished school in 2003 and it is now 2009. The only job that I have held in the IT industry was a rip-off job as a helpdesk/administrative associate for an IT firm that is getting ready to go bankrupt for misclassifying all of their workers as independent contractors in lieu of employees to avoid paying state/federal payroll taxes. The only reason I was hired for that job is because someone working for the company introduced me to the owner of the firm. Prior to that I worked as a bill collector for $11.33 per hour after I finished school and as a substitute teacher making $11.25 per hour for 3 years until I was hired at the IT firm. Even at the IT firm, I only made around $31, 000+. That is all and that salary is not commensurate with the debt load from student loans that I have as a result of attending this institution.

Too make a long story short, no one wants to hire a DeVry graduate. Sometimes I cannot help but to think that when I send my resume off to companies and when they see that DeVry degree listed in the education section, they must have themselves a very good laugh and then toss my resume in the garbage or send it to their trash box if the resume is emailed.

Don't waste your time. If you feel that you cannot do better or get into a better school, my advice is to attend a Junior College for a couple of years and then transfer to a university. This method will save you hundreds and thousands of dollars along with some embarrassment.

DeVry instructors in the web development courses tell you to google tutorials. Last I checked, Google is free of charge as long as you have a device and a way to connect to the internet! This school is a total scam and I have tried TWO of their programs. Communication design management and web development. I couldn't code a website if my LIFE depended on it!

I am halfway through my bachelors in electronic engineering with a concentration in renewable energy. DeVry University has very accelerated courses I'm doing everything online because I have worked for myself for the last decade and It was the best way for me to get my education on my own schedule. Currently I re- furbish appliances while going through school and I have already had job offers for a technician internship in the robotics field, industrial robotics to be more specific. I feel if you completed your degree and you can't find a job you're not looking hard enough if you really want a job whether it be in your career field or not you go after that job and you don't give up and blame the school in which you were educated if you feel like you did such a good job with that education that was presented to you. Stop blaming your downfalls on the school that you chose to attend. I have attended university classes as well and military based classes and the courses I take to DeVry are much more intense as far as specific information that needs to be learned in specific degree fields taught by EXTREMELY over-qualified instructors. DEVRY is not there to give you a career or to hand you a life Devry is there to give you a foundation and learning tools to be able to go out and grasp that dream job that makes you happy and that makes you the amount of money that you want at any job. You will have to start at the bottom and work your way up that's just life. My sister has her doctorate from a very renowned university initially her bachelors from a very renowned private university and still she works as a legal secretary for 28 dollars an hour. I have worked for myself since my very early twenties I have owned a flooring company, a mechanic shop, I sold cars I did finish construction, framing, roofing, electrician work, plumbing, and numerous other trades. My family, friends, and aquaintances call me a jack of all trades. Prior to my adulthood I worked in the restaurant industry my father is a master chef and I trained beneath him since the age of 6 I'm fully qualified to consult, do menu designs, create recipes, train staff, manage an entire restaurant front or back of the house and for that matter just about any business that I have stepped foot into I have been able to learn and manage those businesses. all the job experience I described was from the age of 6 to the age of 30 it was all self taught self learn and specifically made to be more efficient and organic depending on what I was doing and who I was working for if not myself. I decided to go to DeVry at the age of 30 I have a 10 year old son and he can already work on appliances better than a lot of adults that I know.

My point to all of this is not to brag or say oh look at all the stuff I know but my point is when I was 18 I was not ready to go to college I did not know what I wanted to do and I was curious about the world so I took it upon myself to go out and learn every aspect of every job that I have ever found interesting or anything that I could not understand. I did this so that I could ensure my future career that I spend the majority of my life on I am truly happy with and I don't have regrets saying that I didn't try other things out.

If you truly want a job you will go find it if you truly want a job and a career that you've been trained to do you will find the most entry level position and if you work hard enough and prove yourself you will work your way up but to think that you can go to college and come out of it or need a hundred thousand dollars a year right off the bat without any experience is ridiculous.

Once again I reiterate College is your foundation it is there to teach you how to think it is there to teach you how to learn it is there to teach you how to mesh within a certain environment in society so that you can go on and be a successful member of society.

If you want to play the blame game, blame yourself for not trying hard enough blame or your parents for not teaching you well enough which is also ridiculous because you're an adult. But don't blame the institution that you chose to get your education and then slander it online telling other students that may be a perfect fit for Devry that the school is not worth the money that you're paying for it. College is what you make of it life is what you make it any education you get whether it be from university or self taught or just on the job experience is what you make of it.

So please stop adding to the stereotype that Americans are entitled little brats because you're making the rest of us look bad the founders of our country, our ancestors, and all of the immigrants that traveled to America that make it possible for all of us to be here in this fabulous country would be ashamed at the lack of responsibility that should be taken for personal accountability.

If you are reading these posts and are considering DeVry University please give it a shot if it is a fit for you and it sounds like it is a fit for you it is not for everybody some people do not have the self discipline to take the courses on their own in a timely manner and do what it takes to take control of their lives. Those people should probably go to universities where they have to go and attend classes have attendance and be babysat. Even so you did go to the best universities in the country and still not find a job at the end of your degree that's just a tough economy people but if you really want it go out and take it figure out a way and stop complaining on stupid internet forums maybe if you spent more time looking for a job and leas time complaining online you wouldn't be in this situation.

I apologize if my sentence structure and punctuation are not completely correct I did all of this with talk to text. However, I suppose I could blame my education haha lol grow up people.

I said good day!

I'd like to commiserate, and go in with you on suing this institution ... The admissions rep lied to me by telling me that I would learn programming through their MIS degree. The 8 week "accelerated" courses barely scratch the surface. I'm currently in a deep depression, realizing that I should have attended another University I order to achieve my goals. Contact Meir your lawsuit is still open. Jasonsh5@aol.com

Went to Devry... have experienced all of this, fortunately i was already employed and my mentor, advised me to switch schools... and Keith, i make six figures too...

I am currently going to Devry for a degree in Multimedia Design and Development. I am currently employed and am getting the degree in order to learn more about web development ( I have a small side business as a web designer) and having the degree will help me advance my career. For me, I needed to do on-line courses, so my choices were more limited, but I really liked the program. They also explained to me that my local community college (which also has classes on-line) has an agreement with Devry and several of my general education classes I could take with the community college and transfer the credits as soon as I'm finished with the class. I just finished the second such class and will apply for the transcript to be sent as soon as the records are updated. This option is saving me thousands of dollars. My adviser also suggested that I take a test for one of the first required classes because he suspected I already had enough knowledge and experience on the subject and could "test out" of the class. This means I got the credits but did not have to pay for the class.
So the bottom line is, they had a degree program that met my needs. They were friendly and helpful in helping me to save where possible. They are expensive and I am paying my tuition's up front, so I really need to save where I can. I have been at it a little over a year, taking classes half time (2 classes per semester with the occasional overlap of an additional from the community college).
Now... I am not fresh out of high school. I am in my 40s with a full time job and a family. I think with anything, you get out of it what you put into it. Taking on-line courses can be harder than on-site classes because of all the extra reading and not being able to have someone look over your shoulder. If I was fresh out of high school and looking at colleges to go to, I would not have chosen Devry. I would have chosen a college to "go" to. To get the college experience etc. A 19 year old likely does not have a full time "real" job and two kids to cart around to all their activities. Devry is a great choice for someone who is not in the position to do the full time college thing. They are also a good choice if they have a degree program you are interested in where as others do not. If you are young and not sure what direction you want to go in, I suggest going to a State school and not only getting that experience but the time to figure out what you really want to do. If you are going back to finish a degree or just find they have the program you are looking for, then go for it. I have not had any problems with them and have learned a lot.

I got tricked into going to this school after filling out an application at this website: http://www.campusexplorer.com/ It says find your dream, but its been nothing but a nightmare. Now I am attending community college which was I wanted in the first place, and what I thought my application was for. Now I got debt and the company just got paid.

I am a former devry student not graduate and have had a very successful IT career without my degree. I do use Devry on my resume as I attended. EXPERIENCE is key. I started at helpdesk level [censor]...did it for about a year at Morgan Stanley and worked for IBM only on weekends under contract for 1 year participating in a token ring to ethernet upgrade for all CHASE manhattan banks. Then did helpdesk for the board of ed in NYC. After that I moved on to a Desktop support position for a healthcare collections agency. And today I am a the Site administrator for one of the plants at a chemical company. Now I want to finish the degree I started at Devry and will start this fall to compliment my experience.

If you just graduated..don't expect a great position cuz you probably don't know [censor] about IT. Experience is key..get your foot in the door and learn! Stop complaining and apply at staffing agencies for IT.

Unless you know active directory, ms exchange and really know how to troubleshoot and resolve network issues stop complaining and whining. Just get your foot in the door and stop thinking you know everything there's a [censor] load to learn out there. Learn how to troubleshoot vpns...what happens when the dhcp server runs out of IP addresses?

U need to really knock out those technical interviews. Depending on the position will determine the question. I will give an example to help u out.

Helpdesk interview questions: walk me through troubleshooting a network connection issue . User says I don't have internet.

2. User says she has internet but shes not receiving email in her Outlook
3. User says she can send but not receive email in outlook
4. What are some of the ways to tell if a user has network connectivity?

Desktop support questions: 1. You can ping the users machine but she can't log on to the network.?

2 . We have a remote user that calls because she can't log on from home. Walk me thru some troubleshooting steps.
3. Do you know what an SLA is? What were the SLA's like at your previous job.

Stupid questions but they will ask.

Bottom line is...use your degree as a tool. School won't teach you everything. Companies want to depend on you and on your expertise to keep the users working and functioning. So know your stuff.

You don't need to know everything. But you NEED to atleast know how to troubleshoot. Noone knows everything but they like to feel comfortable enough that you can figure it out and resolve it eventually.
So stop [censor]in and use your degree as a tool to compliment your personality and eagerness to learn and become part of a team. If you have no experience and just graduated...you need to be willing to put your head down and take what you can get for the moment. After a year or so you can move on to a different company and keep working your way through the ladder and become more valuable and knowledgable. There's lots to learn in IT. Be smart be patient and work on getting your foot in the door. Devry is a great school. If you can't get a job then your interviewing skills are probably weak and if your rival candidate happens to have some experience...guess what? They're the chosen one. So focus on getting experience first. Then move on after you feel more comfortable.

Devry rocks and I haven't even graduated yet. But its will definitely compliment my experience. Good luck!

I interviewed for a job at DeVry itself and it was the worst job interview experience I've ever had. I was cross examined for a hour and a half on the phone by a woman from HR who had absolutely no understanding of my profession, obviously reading the questions from a script, and then was told that I had to take an automated online exam to analyze my personality and intelligence, and that took an hour and twenty minutes, the longest one I've ever taken by far, and then 24 hours later I was informed by a form email that my qualifications were not what they were looking for and good luck and all that. If you include the long job application I had to fill out as well, I probably spent nearly four hours just to be summarily rejected without ever talking to anyone who would actually be making hiring decisions. I told them that I wanted my personal information deleted from their records, as I would never again apply for a job there, but they refused. Who knows what they're going to do with their precious "personality profile" that they now have on record. Sell it?
Beware before you apply for a job with DeVry, they will waste your time.

Don’t go to Devry. I am an actual graduate and will try my very best to keep everyone from going there. They are not a goog school at all. You won’t learn half as much as if you went to a state university. I had a Dean teach one of my classes and it was the worst experience of my life. He didn’t know s***. I graduated and never got a job. They claim that they have a 90% placement rate but it includes anyone that is working even if it’s not in their field. If you work at Mcdonalds you are part of the 90%. Hooray! That’s what they don’t tell you. Biggest mistake of my life. My career services advisor never helped me either. She created a resume for me that was immediately changed when I went to a temp place. Never heard from her again even after sending several e-mails. Took all the money they could get and cut ties.
All they did was keep calling me to go to Keller so they could get more money. I'm going to spend the rest of my life spreading the word.

DeVry University - same school, same complaints

Devry ownes Chamberlain School of Nursing. I wish I'd known what I know today, which is that they are the same school and that they both have a bad reputation for treating their students like dirt. They are only concerned with making a profit by enrolling as many students as they can, but they have horrible customer service, are unprofessional, and the...

DeVry University rip off

I was researching online education options in the hotel management field when devry's ads popped up. I asked for additional info. And shortly after that starting receiving emails from a tracy blake, student advisor I guess.

I was advised that the only way to truly get a cost estimate for my chosen degree was to follow her recommended steps. First, I had to get a financial aide pin from the website she told me to visit and then I had to submit an application fee, at the cost of $50.00.

I was told this fee was refundable if I chose not to submit my application for enrollment to their school. I guess she forgot to state the 3 days allowable period that was later mentioned to me by their admission's guy who handles the refunds.

Needless to say, I chose not to attend their online university and requested a refund, in an email, stating such. And of course this guy refused on the basis of their 3 day policy.

What a rip off!

Any school you apply to that doesn't have open enrollment, meaning, doesn't accept anyone under the sun, to their University, has an application fee. You cannot find out any Financial Aid information for any school without having an application on file for them. That the law, to protect you, so that everyone isn't accessing your financial information. You were not scammed, you were uneducated.

DeVry University fraud and cheating

DeVry University is not a school it is a scam. They lure you in with the prospect of ane easy and faster route to a college degree that will improve your earning potential. That's the bait and it's a trap.

You won't get ahead. You'll end up with at best a useless education and a worthless degree and oh yeah plenty of debt. and if you don't pay them Uncle Sam does through the guaranteed student loan program. Your credits won't transfer to a real school. Some have compared the post Devry experience to buying a new car - only you don't get the car only the payments.

Yes,
Do not go to this school .. I have spent three years of my life pursuing an associates of applied science in Network Systems Administration .. The first time I went to the school I was told that the school will help me get a job and that it will not take that long ..

Well, it's been a year SINCE I GRADUATED AND HAVE HAD SO MUCH TROUBLE AND COMPLICATIONS FINDING A JOB IN THE FIELD THAT I OBTAINED MY DEGREE. Everytime they tell me that I do not have the experience and that it would help if I go for the bachelor's ..
Hello, if the companies and/or corporations are not willing to offer me an opportunity when I have an associates and no experience, then what makes it believable that they will give me an opportunity when I have a bachelor's because I will still have no experience in the field ...

I had a problem with them offering a class for $275 as a special price because I am in Iraq. I accepted their offer and took the class, and all was good for awhile. A year later I found a derogatory mark on my credit report from DeVry, saying I owed them $875. I figured it was a mistake and I called their Student Accounts. I sent them all my paperwork showing that the class was offered to me for $275 they said that their department which sets prices for Armed Forces wouldn't accept the discount they gave me, and that I was therefore responsible for the balance. ? When I spoke to the manager of the Accounts Escalation she emailed me with the following: "you should discuss this price with your Academic Advisor, I can't help you".
I am now trying to find a lawyer to sue DeVry. I regret the day that I got mixed up with them.

DeVry University terrible experience

Before enrolling I was very concerned about my aid covering every expense. I was told it would cover my costs and after five weeks of begging for them to help me and explain the process to me. I found myself struggling with a bill and I have no idea what I am even paying for. I also was told they would block my classes if I did not call them. Why bother to call because they do not care about my finances. I live on a very tight budget of $792 a month and there is no way I cannot afford their expenses. I expressed my concerns way before I decided to enroll.

Now I am in a huge bind. I have my rent, food, utilities, and medical expenses and have no means to pay them. They received three loans and that was not enough according to them. They worked hard to mislead me and now they do not care about my concerns. I have begged for weeks for help but there is no help. They also threatened to stop my classes if I did not call them. I paid dearly for these classes and they have been paid all but the balance I owe them. I have never paid any expense at any other school and now they charged me for god knows what.

I could not even get them to explain to me what I was paying for and how much.

It is not a good school and they do not care about the students.

They are interested in enrollment and nothing else.

all of these online schools are jokes for people that don't know the difference between a college and a pile of [censor]. America is a [censor] place to live because we don't have free education. If the costs of universities were waved and everyone that wanted a degree could get one then the work force would be so much smarter and more effective at their jobs. The single bill that created the US government the greatest revenue in the last hundred years was the G.I. bill that promised free college tuition for those who served in the military. After thirty years of that bill being in place, America had so many more educated professionals than it did before it was passed that it would have been impossible to be a world superpower without it.
Don't blame the redheaded step children of this dilemma like Devry and ITT, their terrible but America made it so that there had to be terrible schools like them because the costs of institutions have risen dramatically.

2 things bother me here, Janice.

The finance people called you and told you to call them back so they could help you and you assumed that they were not going to help so you simply didn't call?

Secondly, If DeVry was interested in only enrollement, why not waive the 50 dollar application fee that other online schools (Phoenix, Everest, Kaplan) do? If they are just looking for fresh bodies and signatures, why did they risk you not having 50 dollars?

You are the reason that America is in debt. It isn't that you don't care, its that you would rather spend your energy complaining than paying your debts.

You dont deserve to have a degree.

DeVry University overcharging

It is easy to sue any business in California in small claims court and you can do it yourself. No attorneys are necessary and you can sue them in the city in which you attended school even though they have corporate offices in Los Angeles and they are an Illinois company. Unlike California, Illinois has no consumer protection laws and small claims court is useless as everything is geared to protect the businesses.

We are very fortunate in California to have excellent consumer protection resources and one of those is the California Small Claims Court System. I have used it successfully many times.

You do not need a lawyer as no lawyers are allowed in small claims court. I sued DeVry University in small claims court here in San Diego and won a judgment against them for $6500.00 which I am currently working on collecting. In addition, I am about to file a second lawsuit to recover another $7500.00 in lost student financing.

When you file your case at your local California Small Claims Court, they have free legal advisors that will help you to file and prepare your case. It is very easy and simple.

It costs under $100. to file and serve a small claims case.

If you want to sue Devry at any of the Southern California Campuses then you will need the name and address that appears on their business license. This is public information available for free at the website for your county registration office so I am not divulging any private information here;

CT Corporate System dba Devry University
818 W. 7th Street
Los Angeles, CA 90017

If they owe you money, Don't let them get you. It does not matter what they got you to sign if they lied to you verbally while you were signing it. Also, they must provide you with a copy of anything you sign and in my case they even failed to do that so anything I signed is not valid.

And the small claims court judge agreed with me!

This is the email sent from the representative from Devry. They did not want to come to court because of a subpoena. Obviously they were scared they would get caught lying so they tried to settle. They commit so much fraud. ...Contact me at RnBsinger75@gmail.com to start a class action lawsuit.

On January 12th, we had sent you an email with attached documents regarding our desire to reach an agreement as this has been a long process for both parties.

Today, we have received a subpoena from you to attend Magistrate Court in Fulton County on Monday, February 22, 2010. We are resending the email below along with the release agreement for you to review. This agreement will bring your account balance to zero ($0).

If you accept, please sign and fax back to me along with dismissing the charges. Please confirm receipt of this email.

Thank you.

DeVry University fraud/financial aid

I requested information about starting a business program at Devry University, got a call back from one of the advisers to schedule a tour. I went in for the meeting with the adviser and really wanted to attend the school being that I at that time held a Student appoint with the Government for a Program Support Clerk at the local military hospital.
There for I had to continually be enrolled and attending college, well I started the process to enroll in school taking the entry exams etc... I didn't do so well on the test so the adviser assigned to me suggested that I that a practice class given for free at the I-10 Devry location located in Houston TX. I took the advise and went to the class took a couple of practice test and notified my adviser. My next steps consisted of retesting and filling out my FAFSA. Everything was running smooth about a week after I took the entry test again I received my SARs report from FAFSA, I took it to my adviser she schduled an appointment with then acting Financial Aid personnel Courtney Ralls. At this meeting I was informed that I would not be able to get financial aid at that time because I had a defaulted loan and that all though I qualified in other ways that defaulted loan disqualified me. She wrote the lender account number, loan type and amount down as well as information to a Federal Consolidation Program under the William D. Ford Consolidation Board for me to contact and consolidate my loans, I did so eager to attend school and continue to keep my good Government Job. Long story short, it would take 6-9 months for me to be able to qualify for student aid because the another one of my loans defaulted after I filled out my FAFSA form again.

I kept trying even after I lost my job for not being enrolled in school. Finally after about three months of losing my job not thinking I could attend school I received a letter from Sallie Mae a lender for Devry stating welcome and thank you for choosing us as your lender... Your loans in the amount of $9000.00 were disbursed to Devry on Nov.30, 2007. OK listen I started my job Oct.1, 2007 Went through the whole denial of FAFSA up until I lost my job on May 29, 2008 that whole time the Financial Aid Lady told me I could not get the aide I received the letter from Sallie Mae in June. I have spoken to the Dean Bridgett Sellers she has the worst attitude every They told me that the funds would be returned and they have not. They also have a Devry Loan for $500.00 all of this is on my credit gaining interest and I still have not found a job. God Bless the ones his wrath is released on but I will not rest until they pay me back for all of my pain and suffering I have a 4 year old son and this can not in anyway be correct in the standards of anyone's book of law... I never got a chance to go to school and those same fraud employees of Devry won't even that authority to fix this scandal this is pure Fraud!

I am so sorry to hear about this. If you attended college in California then you should consider filing a case in Small Claims Court.

Even many states besides California offer a small claims system. Here in California every city has a small claims court and you can sue any business operating in California for up to $7500.00. It costs less than $100. to file a small claims case and you can do this yourself. Attorneys are not allowed in small claims case so you must represent yourself and the business must send a representative to appear who is not a legal representative; just a regular officer of the company.

Every California small claims office has a free legal advisor who can help you prepare the paperwork and your case. It is a very simple process; meant for the common man to seek justice.

I sued DeVry here in San Diego and won a judgment against them for $6500. I am just starting the collection process for that and I am about to file my second case against them.

Every time someone files a case against them they have to send a representative from Illinois at great expense. If many people file cases against them then the cost would be phenomenol!

Even if you lose you will cost them money so you really have nothing to lose by trying and everything to gain.

I won and it was easy.

To sue them you will need to know the name that appears on their business license. Your local small claims advisor can help you to find that information which is public information and available for free from your local business registration office in California. Here is DeVry's business license listing for Southern California;

DeVry University exhorbitant tuition fees and dishonest billing

I attended Devry University here in San Diego for a single semester in March of 2008. I was originally quoted $50, 000/$60, 000. for a 3 year bachelors program at Devry. I started part time, taking a single math course to see if I would like Devry.

The bills started coming in the second week of class and right away I was alarmed. I was billed over $5, 000. for a single math course and they also charged me for books and supplies (Expensive scientific calculators and laptop), which I paid for out of my own pocket directly, with the promise of future reimbursement that never came. I left Devry after that semester and went to the California community colleges which are much more affordable and a much more respected education. I was about to start my 3rd semester and getting ready to transfer to SDSU when it became obvious that my short attendance at Devry would be a problem.

Firstly, Devry refuses to release my transcript, claiming I owe them another $1000. above the $3750 they have already received for the one math class. This has made it so that I cannot get any further student financial aid, (including loans) until the Devry transcript is released.

But also, it turns out that Devry is not fully accredited after all and now it is looking like i will have to repeat this course in community college to complete the prerequisite requirement for my bachelors degree.

Do I regret ever going to Devry's doorstep? The answer is a big, resounding YES!

I am so surprised with what I have been finding out concerning DeVry University. I too am a victim of the financial aid issues that the University is having, and I do not blame the staff or even the Deans. I was told that I was accepted and my financial aid was confirmed by the enrollment advisor and the financial advisor. After my 8 week course was completed I was told by the financial advisor that owed them the classes. It has been two years and I still no resolution, the amount due back in 2009 was $1, 300 and now I got other bill for $3, 629.00 and locked out of any additional courses. Finding out from Sallie Mae, the university financial division sent back my funding to them and I never was informed by the university about this refund.
Caught between a rock and a hard place, the university can hold my transcripts and I will not be able to use any to continue my education. Where is the justice?

Minorities get ripped off, Really? That's your user name? Get over yourself and making everything a racial issue. You make yourself sound completely uneducated.
How is it DeVry's fault that you didn't pay your bills? When you default on a loan, you get yourself into serious trouble when you try to apply to some other school. It's not the school's fault you weren't honest about your financial situation. I cannot wait for you to call the FBI and tell them your woes. The will laugh hard in your face.

I am also a victim of Devry University financial aid fraud I did not even get to attend classes because the Financial aid department told me I could not get financial aid because I defaulted on a previous student loan at a different college. The school put almost $11, 000 dollar worth of financial aide in my name they still have not returned it my next step is to file a lawsuit and to contact the FBI.

IF ANY ONE HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM PLEASE LET'S TRY TO COME TOGETHER OTHERWISE THEY WILL KEEP DOING THIS TO STUDENTS!

DeVry University - scam and rip off!

I agree. DeVry in Colorado is the same with unqualified instructors. DeVry University is not a school it is a scam. They lure you in with the prospect of ane easy and faster route to a college degree that will improve your earning potential. That's the bait and it's a trap. You won't get ahead. You'll end up with at best a usless education and a worthle...

DeVry University financial

I am currently enrolled in DeVry, I am an A student. DeVry has put my loan on hold and refused to disburse it while charging me interest, I have called 6 times, never got an honest answer emailed more times than I can count.
I finally called Wachovia, who is handling my student loan, they stated DeVry has done that to scores of students whose loans they are handling, it's away of DeVry conning more money out of their students.
Wachovia in the mean time is trying to sort this out. I have made a complaint to my state Attorney General, the Federal Trade Comission, and the BBB. I urge everyone who has a problem to do the same, it is only by joint action that we can get something done.

I completely agree with everyone on this .. Devry has conned me and I have never ever seen a dime of my financial and loans that Devry said i had to make. I saw one, check for school and after that, I never saw another again. I called and called and made complaints about this and they called me a liar and said that "supposedly" I had received it. First of all, they didn't have my right address down and second, they said that once they mail it, they cant reimbursed me for the missing loan. Also, since Ive already lost my money, few months later .. the Financial department sent me documents that they need to update my student account .. so, of course .. i said okay. fax them to me, which they did .. no biggie right? here's the problem ... for months, literally for months, i was in a "fax/document war" with the STUPID FINANCIAL DEPARTMENT OF ###ING DEVRY. I kept sending them my documents and they kept telling me that they didn't receive it and prolonged it for so long. i was giving this heads up of "them needing my documents" in march and i had to get it in before June 20 2010, so that i could start the summer session. so, i said okay .. i kid you not, as June 20th passed by, they said they still didn't have it ... it was until late 2010 or the beginning of 2011, the Financial Department sent me an apology email, stating they they had my documents all along .. by that time, i had already giving up on Devry all together. I learned my lesson. Devry cant be trusted

I would like to be involved in this class action suit against DeVry. I am also being ripped off of my school loans and being charged me for room and board, while I am an online student. I have four classes left before I get my degree in HIT. I spent the last three years watching them take more money out of me that I was supposed to use for my education, and some one messed up and sent a budget form stating what they are spending it on. I have contacted the Dept of education, and intend on either getting every penny back in my pocket or paid back to my loans. I had to drop a class within the first week because the professor was an A ~ HOLE and I wanted out of there before I knew I would get a bad grade. I asked to be switched. Well they charged me for that whole class twice.I also changed my major in the middle of the year from ECT to HIT and Although I didn't take the whole ECT course, they charged me for the whole course. Now I have no funding to get a bachelors if I wanted to. I would like some more info on how to get these guys. I know they owe me thousands.You can e mail me @ swtjne37@yahoo.com.

Devry is ripping off their students by charging them for services they don't need. They refuse to do an audit of my account after I asked. I ran out of money for school and had to start getting private loans. Devry went up in there price every semester it seem like was the cost was more and more. The first private loan I did the Financial Advisor only did the loan for the amount I needed at the time and the amount I need to finish, which after speaking to another advisor was the wrong thing to do. I had only 9 classes left to finish and could not b/c I ran out of money and could not get approved for the private loans anymore alone. I was advised that I would need a co-signer after I purchased my home, they wouldn’t approve me for the private loans anymore. The Advisor did not do her job correctly and now I have all the debt and no degree. My complaints is that 1 Devry is to high and 2nd they don't care about the students getting there education just them getting paid. I should have written when my friend did after she found out they were charging her for room and board when they don't even have housing on campus in Houston, TX.

My daughter drove up there the other day to see what they had to offer in graphic web design. They sat her down and made her feel like she is "just the student" they want at Devry! - a real swanky sales approach. Then they told her the degree would cost around $60, 000! This "school" is a joke and anyone who gets a good job after graduation is only getting one from someone not familiar with DeVry and probably on their own merits having little to do with the actual degree. My daugher then called around to companies to see if they would hire someone from DeVry. All said no way.

I agree, Devry is nothing more than a paper mill. Their degree might help you get a promotion at your current job but it is not going to help you when you go out into the open job market and try to compete against candidates with real degrees. I took my local Devry school to small claims court and won a $6500. judgment which I am still trying to collect but they continue to hold my college transcript hostage for the single semester and math course which I completed. Not only that but my new school says that their math course will not meet my requirement for college Algebra so I have to repeat the course! But I cannot get another penny of student financing or grant money (despite the fact that I qualify for $4500./semester in grant money), simply because Devry won't provide my transcript. They continue to fight and so will I. I have no doubt I will be victorious in the end. It is easy to file a small claims case in California at your local court house and the you don't have to hire an attorney to do it (no attorneys allowed in small claims court) you can do it all yourself. Devry's real business name is CT Corporation dba Devry University if anyone wants to look up their license information to file in small claims court. The small claims court judges are always on the side of the little guy.

DeVry trains representatives to give students what DeVry has instead of what the students want. I wonder how many thousands of students made an initial investment thinking they were getting what they wanted until they realized they were sitting in the classroom for something totally different. For example, a BS degree in nursing is not the same thing as a BS degree in health care management. Can you imagine how many MILLIONS OF dollars DeVry would have to re-imburse if they were sued? No wonder my ADA would insist that I should cut the presentations and the interviews short; but I refused to do that because the students needs to know what program I am talking about. In the meantime, I have been trying to recruit an attorney to sue DeVry University but they did so many things to me that I need an attorney that has plenty of time to handle my case. I ended up filing a complaing with the Human Rights Commissions in Oklahoma City. If you know of anyone that can handle my case please send me an email at regdev61@yahoo.com In the meantime, I contacted the media and they took my information but they said it would take time. By the way, I am willing to take a polygraph for everything that I stated on my complaint with the Human Right Commissions. At DeVry, I was ridiculed, humilliated, and discriminated against.

Congratulation, you found out a little about what DeVry is up to before getting in too deep. Me I am a 1975 graduate of DeVry Phoenix, who decided in March 2008, to go back to DeVry as an online student to pursue my BS in Technical Management. What a terrible decision this has turned out to be, every 8-weeks, it has been one-problem after another with this school, ranging from simple incompetence, on the part of school personnel, to the school just not having the best interest of the student as their focus. As an example of their attitude I you’re your attention to DeVry's last caper, were they sent me a refund, and then six weeks later they ask for it back after I have spent it. Another example would be every term since I have back at DeVry; their Finance department has repackaged my student loan at wrong level credits, which I am allowed to take. This repackaging has taken place every term despite the fact that every term I have gotten on the phone with them to straighten out this problem. Regarding the former aforementioned problem, the solution offered by DeVry was to get me take additional loans. DeVry's solution to my latter problem has been to pass the buck internally. In addition their Academic Advising team has been very non-responsive and unhelpful. Their Career Services apparatus has been useless to me as and Alumni, despite what they advertise.

These types’ things make it very hard for student to focus just on doing well in school. It also points out the poor management at DeVry and greed being their primary motivator, not outstanding customer service. If I were you I would count my blessings and get out now before you get in to deep, like I have. Just cut you loss in time and money and move on.

DeVry University complaints

i've just cancelled my enrollment with devry after seeing this site and reading the horror everyone has gone through. knowing now that these people will stop at nothing to ruin the lives of innocent and trusting people, I am worried because they have my bank card information from when I paid the application fee of $50. I also signed a promissory note with sallie mae and provided a co-signer as well. this morning I went into my fafsa and took their school code off, hopefully the damage has not been done.

I hadn't even registered for classes yet and all the bogus crap had already started. I was given 2 different quotes on cost of tuition and when I questioned it I was given the runaround, admissions telling me there must have been a glitch in the system and to clarify with financial aid. when I did call fin. aid, they gave me yet a 3 third quote, this being the highest of all 3 quotes. right then and there, I made it clear that I don't intend to finish with the admissions process and I will not attend devry. she then told me to inform the admissions dept. of cancelling enrollment. I did and of course she didn't pick up so I left a voice message. when I signed the notice of cancellation and sent it back, I also sent an email with the same message, also that I cancelled before the 5 business days was up so I was entitled to a refund. I did that as a backup in case I needed something in writing. I was really surprised she emailed me back later that evening, and of course no apology on giving me the wrong info. on tuition, not even a word. she did mention that it will take 6 weeks for them to process my refund of the app. fee, so we'll see if I get it back. I just hope that this is the last of devry that I will have to deal with.
