My Experience
My experience at DeVry University was overall positive and provided me with a strong academic foundation in business and human resources. The curriculum challenged me to think critically, solve real-world business problems, and apply HR principles through practical coursework. My professors were knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in student success, creating an environment that encouraged both personal and professional growth. Completing my Bachelor of Science in Business Management in December 2025 was a significant accomplishment and gave me the confidence to continue advancing my education.
While I value the education I received, I believe DeVry University’s Career Services department has an opportunity to do more to support students before they graduate. Building stronger partnerships with employers, increasing internship opportunities, hosting more hiring events, and providing more direct job placement assistance while students are still enrolled would make the transition into the workforce much smoother. If students are able to gain internships and employment before graduation, it won’t be as difficult to secure a full-time position after completing their degree.
Although I earned my degree in December 2025, I am still actively seeking an opportunity in my field. I have continued refining my resume, networking with professionals, and applying for positions, but I believe stronger career support while I was enrolled could have better positioned me to secure employment before graduation. I hope DeVry continues to strengthen its Career Services program so future graduates have greater access to internships, employer connections, and meaningful career opportunities before they complete their degrees.

For the most part
For the most part I like this university but only reason I didn’t vote 5 stars is because of the fact when you take breaks from something usually you don’t wanna get bothered. I took a break from school to focus on life and I get it that they care but it felt forced because they would give multiple “courtesy calls”. it just started to become an ick because I would get so many within a few weeks and it would drive me crazy. Making it hard to wanna continue school, but besides that they are the best school I attend since high school years. 4/5.

The more you put in...The more you get out
I think it is important to understand that any student gets out of education what they put into it. Put in effort to learn the material and practice it on your own. DeVry is just as good as the others and many professors teach the same classes in several online universities.
