DeVry University Arlington Campus

A lot of bad reviews for DeVry, naturally, but it all comes down to what the student puts into their experience. It’s easy to skate by in a lot of the classes, but there is still a lot to be learned. The professors are mostly well established in their particular industries and are a wealth of information.
While the administration is not the easiest to deal with, I found that e-​mailing advisors/​veterans affairs personnel/​etc. ahead of time with things I could foresee happening or had concerns about always led to my issue getting resolved quickly and effortlessly. Never had an issue with any of my VA stuff at all, which I commend DeVry on because I enrolled at another campus and they kept my VA paperwork with the individual at the Bethesda campus despite my not taking classes there anymore to ensure nothing affected my stipend.
No matter what school you go to you’re not going to get all of your issues taken care of unless you’re proactive about your situation in it’s entirety. They try to read your mind the first year you’re there, after that like most institutions of higher learning, they let go of your hand and hope that you’ll contact them should trouble arise along your path.
The beauty of a for-​profit institution such as DeVry that likely survives on VA benefits is that there are a number of agencies you as a student can contact if you feel you’ve been wrong in some way. Add to that list your local congressman or senator (if you’re a veteran) and you’ve got an arsenal of resources that will get things done when you can’t get it done yourself.

So I graduated with a 4.0 and I am a miltary vet. I was given my deploma in a cheap $ 0.30 folder. I filled out all the proper paperwork to request to walk, and got confirmation. After 3 months of not hearing anything I asked about the ceremony, and found out I should have already ordered the Cap & Gown. According to the vendor DeVry uses the items should arrive on time, but if you look at the vendor’s social media websites, I am extremly worried. The for profit label is clearly used in all aspects by DeVry as they expect you to pay for everything.

Stay away. If you are a veteran, definitely stay away. I was recently dropped from the program I was enrolled in with no warning and no consideration in the middle of a semester. Many of you will rely on the housing stipend to live. I won’t be able to pay rent next month and will be homeless and I have yet to speak to one person about the decision.

If you can’t get into a four year school, this is the place for you. This place helps you find a job along with giving you the one on one attention you need giving you a bang for you’re buck! The campus is so intimate you know everyone in your major. I don’t personally go to actual devry but I had to take a sociology ge and pharmacology through them. Teachers are great and the class sizes are small no more than 15 ppl for a class. They have tons of campus events like meet your dean with free food and all teachers know your by week 2 of classes. So small and worth it I went to a four year with 150 ppl in a class for the same price. Location is great really near crystal city metro.
