Diploma Factory - Felt Bad for Students Who Wasted Their Money - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso DeVry University

The biggest problem was how embarrassed I felt for working at DeVry. I knew the money that the students were paying for tuition and how they truly felt a degree from DeVry was more meaningful - or just as meaningful - as a degree from another college. Here are some of the reasons for my embarrassment: ACT Scores: I dealt with a lot of the ACT scores of students who were already admitted into DeVry. Note that I wrote "already admitted". The vast majority of ACT scores that I saw were 9's or 12's for the Math category of the ACT. When I saw a "15" for the math category every so often, it stood out for being "high". Then, there would be students who had a "24" for their ACT score. I felt bad that they were admitted just as much as those who received a "12". When a school takes students with incredibly low ACT scores, that's a sure sign that it's a diploma factory. Transcripts: My advice for anyone who requests a copy of their transcript from DeVry (and especially Keller Graduate School of Management) is to look it over very carefully. The system that produced transcripts (at least back when I was there) was notorious for having the wrong grades and cumulative gpa. Especially for Keller transcripts, the computer would sometimes list a cumulative gpa of 0.00. The Terrible Trimester System: The school does a trimester system. And then each trimester is broken into two parts: Session A and Session B. This allows a student to cram through more classes in less time, but it's a financial nightmare. If a student attends just one class and then drops the class, they already will already have to pay a significant amount of money. This system also made it more confusing for employees who were trying to assist students.
