I have been in school for 1 year.
I was on the Deans list and recieved $34,000 in grants, I also had to take out a $8,000 loan to keep me in classes 3 months ago.
My degree would be an Associates in HIT (Healthcare Information Technology).
It would take me 1 1/2 years. I have 5 months to go and the total is already $42,000.
Everytime it is time to register I am blocked from doing so.
Im for sure that I have gotten scamed and that many more students have as well.
I believe they know who to target, and who they can get the most money from.
Noone tells you the same answer either, and most of the time they collect all of your information, like your address, social, email address and phone number and then they ask "so what can I help you with?" you start to talk and the phone goes dead.
You call right back, your ignored and on hold for an hour until you just give up.
I plan on contacting an Attorney, and I would even support a class action lawsuit. It is obviously a Scam.
Im sure that a graduate would do fine, if they would get that far.
If I choose to drop the school now - they still get to keep ALL of the Grant money I earned through the State.. and I would still owe DeVry more.
Its out of control and something Must be done.
We are getting our lifes turned upside down for Nothing, we are getting our credit scores messed up, and taking unneeded loans out.
We are starving and barely making it - just trying to get through school to be able to survive and take care of our families, while DeVry and the other associated scammers can have fabulous Lifes, houses, the best food, and clothes.
Oh... Also I was looking for Internships.. I must complete 80 hours at a hospital.. I found a listing for my Future Career that cost Me so much! - with "Will Train" next to it................. Is this really happening to us?!
Does anyone have any advice on what to do or who I should contact, I thought about DateLine or 20/20.

I share the same issues.
AUTHOR: Fellapanik - (U.S.A.)

I started with charges per course to be 1300 then after 2 yrs each course cost well over 4,000. I am stuck and cannot get my transcripts to transfer to another school because they lied that my courses would be covered through loans and grants.
I got sick and failed a course. BUt DeVry told my lender that I was not eligible to recieve the loan because I only had three credits that semmester. The rep from DeVry told me that it would be covered before I took the course understanding that I had only 3 credits that session. re: Stafford Loan. They immediately charged my EduCard loan and charge me with 25% interest rate on $4000 due. I would have to pay the whole amount before I will be able to get my transcripts.
Devry Finance and Devry Academic Advisors are two totally seperate departments and the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing. I did not sign up for courses and Devry would auto sign me up for classes and charge me when I am not taking them because of my balance due.
They are the worst customer service folks ever. YOu can get any help with tutoring online. In one year I was stressed out and got sick because the lack of proper recording (logging) of phone conversations. They tell you one thing and when you catch them on a lie they said they never said that before.
They would find reasons why you should pay and call you when you have financial issues but wouldn't resolve customer service issues immediately. For anyissues it takes up to 1 to 2 weeks for resolution.
I can't afford the money to finish school. Now I am in a payment plan that I can afford for 2 yrs. That means I would have to wait that long for my transcripts to finish school.
Just my luck
Do not choose DeVry!!.. Listen and read all the complaints they are all the same.
Add me to the list of complainers if your getting a lawyer. I will surely answer all the issues truthfully.
