DeVry University
3
I am a current student working towards my BA in the NCM program. I like the online convenience. I also like the fact that when I call to speak with someone at the school, they are usually available.
I only have one complaint. There is one instructor who is based out of Texas that is on a severe power trip and is also very vengeful. I turned in an assignment to the wrong area based on information she provided to me. If the information had been correct, the assignment would have been on time. Assignments are due by Sunday at 11:59 PM MT. I found out on Monday that it was the wrong area. This was a 50 point assignment. The instructor gave me a zero which took 12% off my percentage grade. I went from a 94% to an 82%. I emailed the instructor and explained the situation. She basically said too bad. I then went to a Dean and the instructor finally decided she would accept my assignment. Ever since that, this instructor has been taking points for anything she chooses. This along with the fact that I was told by the same Dean who helped that Devry has very little control over it's online instructors, since they are contracted. That is a shame, especially when you have one that is on a power trip and is vengeful; like the one I am referring to.
Other than that, I am pleased with Devry.
