Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Computer Science  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright Devry provides an excellent Technical education with a hands on approach developed in Devry's large and up to date computer and electronics labs. The B.S. in CIS is not a thereotical degree but gives you practical experience that will help you succeed in software design and development. If your intention is to continue with a graduate education you will be required to take some additional undergraduate classes as Devry replaces some general education classes with technical classes.

The overall experience was pretty good but shadowed by my expectations prior to my admittance. The best piece of advise i can offer a person deciding whether or not to attend DeVry is to not listen to the recruiters or statistics. As I am told the recruiters are paid commission for students they bring in that attend for 30 days. This makes them money motivated and not motivated to aid prospective students. My paticular recruiter for cleveland embelished many aspects to the point that they were almost blatently lying. For starters I began my degree believing the cet program was fully accredited, as that is what i was told. However, in about my fifth tri I found out from a professor that it would just be going up for accrediation that next trimester. The whole deal with the statistics thing is that boastful 94% placement rate that DeVry is always bragging about. Its all a matter of perspective. As I have been made aware by several honest professors placing a student at a job with Best Buy selling tvs is considered placing them in their field, seeing as how they are around electronics. This is hardly what people expect when they read that number and it is very misleading. I will say that the career service personnel who help you find a job are very friendly and very helpful, i.e. Brent Theaker(real cool guy), but the final say in you getting a job is your effort and experience. As for the professors most of them are very knowledgeable and helpful but there are several bad ones, my cet class even wrote and signed a petition to no avail, to try and get one fired due to a complete lack of teaching ability. But if youre looking for a good basic education Devry is not a bad start. You will learn alot if you apply yourself. I am amazed at what I now know and can do, I look at everything in terms of programming and electronics now. What the social life at DeVry lacks the social life on High Street near OSU makes up for, so dont worry just cuz no girls go to DeVry doesnt mean there arent any around. And student housing dont bother it is definitely overpriced youll pay the same to get one roommate share a 2 bedroom apartment and not have to share a room, or be burdened by the no drinking policy. As my last piece of input i would also like to comment about the term 'technology' that looms at the end of several of DeVry's degrees. This is not told, as far as i know, to any recruits. The 'techology' means that our degree lacks several classes from that of an official B.S. of whatever engineering. So if you plan on getting your masters in the same field after DeVry, you are gonna have to make up at least two semesters, probaly more, of gen eds, maths, sciences, and other classes. So if you have the cash to pay for the ever increasing DeVry tuition its not a bad shot. And if you have any questions feel free to ask me i will give you an honest answer, something you cant rely on a DeVry representative to give you.

My impression of Devry so far is not very pleasing, the cost to attend this university would be disccouraging expect for the fact that I want a great education and I want to attend a school that caters to working professional, wich should reduce my stress while going to school. Devry is a very questionable institution, the staff and the undelying and sometime obvious impression is that this school is more interested in the money that each head count brings that the students themselves. Most reviews that I recieve from friends and even professionals are either reserverd about my choice of schooling or just laughter and disapproval, why? I do not understand. Devry tries to sell themselves as a state if the art school and best choice for your education, I am wondering if this school is merly good and what it does and that is selling. I took a lot of thought and I do mean alot to choose my next choice of education and I am praying that I made the right choice dispite what others may say. Devry gives the impression that they are not aware of what each administrative department does and that could be very stressful and agonizing for the students, my point lies in the fact that Devry sends massive correspoonding mail to students containing the same information, this allows me to thing that I am not of importance and Devry does not know who I am or where I stand in the school, very unprofessional and discouraging. I could rant on about my future university but I will wait until I am there and then I will know what to do, less talk and more action. Devry pormises more but in fact deliveres less... this could change if this school prdes itself on what it sells. Collaboration/Competitive: A-, Campus Aesthetics: F Have a Question?
