What kind of numbers are there at the DeVry campuses? ED reports are two years old.

Does anyone have the latest email on the return to campuses or offices?

Does anyone know exactly what the relationship is between DeVry and Cogswell and why they are feeding off our resources?

Cogswell has been going through major layoffs for five years straight. Their current enrollment is under 500 students. Closer to 450. What a joke.

Cogswell is in a contract with DeVry only to get operational cashflow. The plan is to phase out campuses but still collect on FA from the government. This is what happens. Check out the Cogswell Lay Off Site : https://www.thelayoff.com/cpc... —  read more

Changes are about to come down. More “consolidation” of positions and more jobs will be cut. A lot of changes will be happening between now and mid-February. Brush off those resumes and look for more centralization of operations.

Sad to see Devry cratering like this. I'm wishing all who somehow remain my best. Left in 2012 before it became so awful. Management was awful then–they never asked for my laptop because they didn't want to create an Exit Interview from me.
