If you are looking for a normal college experience do not come here. No one lives on campus, and for the most part the people who do are not friendly, very hipster and just not normal. I have found very little people that I have connected with, and I consider myself to be a normal, outgoing and successful student. I have found very little people who care about their studies and are not passionate about anything.
Classes are very boring and profs give lots of busy work. I felt more challenged in high school. Try to get into the honors program if you do come here.
To sum it up, if you want a typical positive college experience where you feel a sense of community on campus, enjoy meeting normal and social people and are challenged academically DO NOT GO TO DEPAUL. I am transferring as soon as I can.

I also absolutely love Lincoln Park and being a train ride away from anywhere in Chicago. However, there is no sense of community at DePaul. Everyone comes from wealth (myself not included) and it is very hard to find approachable people. No one goes to basketball games, no one wears depaul wear, it just isn't what college should be. The dorms aren't social and not many people are involved in organizations. There is no sense of "wow I love my school." Half my friends already transferred and I am considering it. Too bad because I wish so much that I would love it, but I don't.

I grew up in the suburbs and have always loved the city, and that hasn't changed. I'm very disappointed in DePaul. Besides the professors I've had, the staff in every department from financial aid to the dining halls are incredibly rude. There's virtually nothing to do on campus. DePaul is NOT a party school. In fact, most people do more partying in high school than at DePaul. The teachers in the Psychology department are all awesome. I'll be transferring at semester and will really miss them.

Overall, DePaul is a nice school. The faculty and campus are all great. The student life is less than satisfactory. People are usually snobby girls or frat boys who didn't get in to any state schools. For the money, you could get a much better college education and a better experience.

Being an international aint easy, you get to struggle with the cultural shock as well as language barrier. But somehow I feel DePaul makes the challenge less tough. DePaul has really good professors that concern about their students. I can't comment much on the student quality here tho...y'know how young people are like, but most of the professors here at DePaul are extremely good at showing you the world in a way that won't make you uncomfortable.Most of the professors I've had are brilliant and kind-hearted, yet strict somehow. One thing tho, depaul hires the suckiest adertising profs ever. They're either too old-fashioned nor no creativity at all. So don't come if your major is advertising. Stay away from depaul! Otherwise, DePaul has many great sides that would change your life somehow.

It would be a lie to say I did. The people are rude and exclusive, most come from the same cliques in the same high schools and they stick together. Tuition is also a big joke considering the food is disgusting and all you are really paying for is their church. Being close to the city is great, but I am transferring next year to a school that isn't a huge joke to everyone in Chicago.
