Most Helpful Review for DePaul University

It's probably easy for most people to slack off in classes, but once you start it's hard to break those bad habits. If you keep your head in the game and prioritize, your classwork at DePaul should be no sweat. Advisers will place you in classes that will challenge you, but that you will be able to keep up with as well. Aside from the classroom though, I'm learning a lot about myself, my friends, and different communities and lifestyles. Chicago is a great place for a classroom. There's always something more to learn, especially when you're in the city.

    DePaul University emphasizes its location in Chicago. Students feel integrated into the city. Grades don't matter to professors as much as actual learning.

    DePaul University is a great college with many programs and degrees to decide on. Most of the classes there are small and interacting and get a chance to meet friendly classmates who share the same interests with you. Overall the school is easy to navigate to from home and really is a great experience to attend there.

    A very urban school situated in a great city with lots of things to do. The quarter system is kind of interesting and different, and that affects the school year schedule. However, DePaul offers a lot of great opportunities for a lot of stuff and the classes offered are fantastic.

    The school is really great place to study. The school is located near the city of Chicago so you have the city feeling while being able to still be away. The school loves to show off its diversity with events for everyone, all the time.

    DePaul University's Chicago community and urban environment is certainly unique. Also, since it is a private college, the faculty and staff are more personal and connected to their students. The only downside is if you are a commuter, it is difficult to meet people and become involved.
