DePaul University

"Terrible University. Avoid it. The administration is suffering from a politically standoff, students suffer as a result. Student Resources exists, but are mired in outdated information, broken websites, and underfunded programs. The professors themselves are fine, but not exceptional. This university should be demolished."

"Hispanic Heritage event went on without a hitch. Free of controversy and Factionalism. Entertainment was Great and the Staff was Welcoming. The Highlight was the introduction of Jose “Cha Cha” Jimenez Chairman of the Young Lords. Also some Associates and Friends from there Early Year's. The Bomba group provided good Entertainment and a Festive Atmosphere. In the Middle Sixties you could count the Minorities attending DePaul on one hand. They all played on the Basketball team. Vast improvements have been made not by choice but by pressure. Opening Enrollment and Opportunity for students of color. We can Thank Groups like the Original Young Lord's who helped bring into the light the Contradiction’s of Private Institutions. We are Grateful for the Trail Blazers of the past the Young Lords of Chicago and Chairman Jose “Cha Cha Jimenez for making it possible to attend DePaul. Dare to Struggle Dare to Win!"

"I wouldn’t recommend this college other than the campus is really beautiful and you have access to the city and what that offers/provides. I thought a lot of the teachers were just okay and the counseling and mentoring services provided were barely existing during my time here. I also think they don’t advocate for students enough as I knew some people who went through some pretty terrible events at the university and they just wiped it under the rug and didn’t deal with the matter. Just be careful before you commit and spent tens of thousands of dollars."

"Been trying to call financial aid for the past month and keeps getting placed on hold. Need to figure out important aid stuff but they’re not helpful at all. Every time I call, it’s a waste of an hour because no one is helping you. Imaging waiting a whole hour everyday just to receive no response. When you go in person, they tell you to email them, but still they never answer so how come that’s an option they provide? For a prestigious university like this, this is very unacceptable. We are in the middle of the first semester and they haven’t worked on my case, and then when I reached out about it, they claimed that I have missing documents needed to be submitted, but they never said anything so how are you able to figure this out on your own if they don’t inform you and they don’t communicate when you try to communicate with them?"

"It is a fantastic school. Three of my kids have gone there and done very well for themselves after graduating. All of the staff are very helpful."
