Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Accounting  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Average I think DePaul is overall a good school. If your a transfer student it will be tougher to meet new people to hangout with. Most kids find other friends from dorms as freshmen. Freshmen students are idoits and stupid. As a junior i felt like beating there ass many times. Overall school is great, safe, and clean. All the rooms are good. Teachers are awesome. You'll love it expect the freshmen....

I started down at Champaign, hated it for the overbearing fraternity cult that pervaded the entire campus. So, being so dissulluioned, I put my hopes on Loyola, where I was put into a transfer dorm, and virtually all the students came in with some type of baggage, mostly drunks and drug users. To make a long story short, I was kicked out of Loyola for being present in a dorm room while cocaine was being used, abeit I had no intentions of using the drug. At any rate, I went to Depaul and chose not to live in a dorm, becuase only freshman can live in dorms, and I also thought I was getting to old for that sort of thing. This had grave consequences. At first I didnt care, I was just happy to be in school, and then, after a couple of quarters, I started to really feel alienated. I only truly met two friends, both at the gym, and I to this day maintain that it is very difficult to make friends on the campus if your a transfer student. I think its laughable how depaul advertises itself as being the most diverse student body in the country. Im actually laughing out loud. Most everyone is white, and the younger people are the more close-minded. I actually had a conversation about this with one of my class mates, that they should separate schools bewtween fresh/soph jun/sen becuase there is such an enormous difference in the maturity level from those two groups. At any rate, I can speak for living on three campuses, if your not white, consider going somewhere else. After I went to Depaul I went through a damn near psychotic identity crisis becuase Im of mixed race. (German/Middle-eastern) Although my looks are racially ambiguous, I dont look middle eatern or white, I have olive skin and even that was enough to feel socially estranged. This is just a warning. Never have I seen such a white, privegled elite in the context of a college campus in my life. This is just speaking from an outsiders persective, so those of you that are going to chastise me for saying this can go to hell, becuase Ive lived on three campuses and never have I seen anything like this. Anyways, 100 and 200 level courses are filled with immature freshman and sophmores, some of which I unfortuanelty have to take, because they didnt transfer over. 300 level courses are amazing. Small class size, intellectual environment, group discussions with mature adults, etc. This is about the one part of school that I really enjoy, the 300 level history courses. Sorry but other than that, the freshman can lick my ass, and this "white is right" mentality can go saunter on down back to Alabama. Campus Aesthetics: A, Faculty Accessibility: F Have a Question?

I transfered here during my second year and i regret it. people are not friendly and generally live in the suburbs. the teachers can either be incredibly pretentious or pretty helpful depending on you major. for instance, I had a poetry teacher who thought he was gods gift to man and loved to read his own work to the class. I felt like this was inappropriate. Some teachers are U of C professors, which sounds nice until you realize this is a side gig for them and they really don't care about the class. I found that a lot of my core science classes were filled with professors like this. Overall I would not recommend Depaul to anybody. the student body is the least diverse of any campus i have visited, even though they advertise themselves as having the most diverse student body in the country. People generally meet in the dorms freshmen year, but if you don't live in the dorms do not expect to make friends in class or anywhere else to that matter. most people i have spoken to that transferred to Depaul say that they had a hard time meeting friends and i would have to agree. If you are not entering Depaul as a freshmen definitely do not transfer there. If you are not a fan of frats and sororities do not go to Depaul. it is actually kind of sad, there are like six self proclaimed "frats" at Depaul but none of them have houses or are even sanctioned by fraternity chapters, they are pretty much made up. a lot of people from the suburbs that think they are getting a big city experience but they never leave the safety of lincoln park which is a suburb within a city. I could go on but I think I made my point. Campus Aesthetics: A, University Resource Use: F Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.

It was the best decision of my life. All of the professors were great. I put poison in one of their drinks. I would go here ten times again. Chicago is a wonderful city. I think the whole place should burn. You won't regret going to DePaul. Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.
