DeVry University has Professors that are prepared to teach and coach. Most importantly the professors are real people that are in the fields they teach. I will recommend DeVry University to anyone who is willing to make a difference for themselves in their future career.

Courses are outdated and ill-designed in most cases. Some of which can make students fail for no good reason or give an easy 'A'. Credits are hard to transfer. Financial and academic offices are a mess. Some faculty are extremely hard to reach.
