DeVry University is proud to support the education of Team USA as an official education provider of the United States
Olympic Committee (USOC). This partnership gives Olympic and Paralympic hopefuls the opportunity to attend
DeVry University or our Keller Graduate School of Management while pursuing their athletic dreams.
Most students at DeVry University know how challenging it is to juggle work, family and education. But what
if your job was training to be an Olympic or Paralympic athlete? Like our students, Team USA athletes often
must make compromises in order to reach their ultimate goals. DeVry University is hoping to make education
one less thing athletes have to put on hold.
What makes DeVry University and the USOC a great match is our flexible learning options, personal
attention from professors and degree programs in over 40 career fields. We’re committed to student-
athletes like Will Brady, modern pentathlete, full-time student and new father – and Anna Johannes,
Paralympic hopeful swimmer and full-time student – in the same way we’re committed to all of our
students. We give them the career-focused support they need so that nothing stands in the way of
their dreams.
An education Partnership like no other
From the President
On behalf of the distinguished students, alumni,
professors and staff of DeVry University, I welcome
you to the DeVry family and commend your deci-
sion to pursue higher education.
As you start your educational journey, know that this
is an exciting time to join DeVry. We’re proud to have
recently embarked on a five-year partnership with
the United States Olympic Committee as an Official
Education Partner. Olympic and Paralympic hope-
fuls will now be sitting in our classrooms and study-
ing online and potentially taking courses with you.
Just as these dedicated athletes are trained to be at the top of their game by
great coaches, you, as a DeVry student, will have a great team of DeVry faculty
and staff supporting your educational and career goals. We know that with
hard work and determination, you, like our Olympic and Paralympic athletes,
can achieve greatness.
As you embark on your personal journey to success, know that DeVry University
is firmly committed to helping you reach your full potential through:
•
Outstanding Career Preparation: DeVry’s programs are designed and
updated with input from major employers. In fact, 96 of the Fortune 100
companies employ DeVry University graduates. And guiding you every
step of the way are faculty with advanced degrees and professional
experience in the fields they teach.
•
Service Excellence: Small class sizes, individual attention and personal
support from dedicated professionals across the DeVry system have helped
a quarter-million+ alumni put their degrees to work since 1931.
•
Best-of-Both Course Delivery: Take advantage of the opportunity to learn
on your terms – on campus, online or through a flexible combination of both.
Through our year-round schedule, earn your degree in as few as three years.
•
Respected Degree: DeVry’s accreditation from The Higher Learning
Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools –
the same organization that accredits many other prestigious public and
private colleges and universities – provides assurance that high standards
for performance, student outcomes, integrity and quality have been met.
Our 80-year history has seen DeVry University become a highly respected
degree-granting institution uniquely serving students at 95+ U.S. campuses,
in Canada and online. Yet our core purpose remains as it was when we opened
our doors in 1931 – to help dedicated students like you achieve their career
dreams through the power of education. I encourage you, like our Olympic
and Paralympic hopefuls, to move forward with the confidence and determin-
ation to achieve your personal best. Be inspired, take advantage of the rich
educational opportunity DeVry University provides and most of all, let nothing
stand in your way of pursuing the career that will help you enjoy a lifetime of
success and reward.
Respectfully,
David J. Pauldine
President, DeVry University
