In 1995 the province suspended another private school, Chicago-based DeVry Inc. (see eye, June 6 and 13, 1996) from OSAP after 282 of its students claimed zero income. DeVry paid Ontario $1.7 million and put up a $2 million letter of credit to win reinstatement.

DR. PANNU: Thank you, Mr. Speaker [Ken Kowalski]. On January 31, 2001, the provincial government gave the DeVry Institute of Technology, a for-profit, U.S.-based corporation, the right to grant academic degrees under the Universities Act. This unprecedented decision, which allows the for-profit private sector now to enter the postsecondary education system, is opposed by, among others, the University of Calgary Faculty Association, the Canadian Federation of Students, and the Canadian Association of University Teachers. My questions are to the Premier [Ralph Klein]. Why is the Conservative government getting back into the business of business by awarding academic degree granting status to the for-profit DeVry Institute?
Acting on the advice of the private colleges accreditation board, the province gave DeVry the right in 2001 to grant baccalaureates in computer systems, electronic engineering and business operations. At the time, it was the country's first for-profit degree-granting institution.
In its first significant deal since the blockbuster 2003 purchase of Ross University in the Caribbean for $329 million, Oakbrook Terrace–based DeVry spent $5.4 million in March to acquire the Deaconess College of Nursing in St. Louis, marking the company's entry into the nursing education marketplace.
Wall Street has caught a certain amount of that optimism. The price of DeVry stock climbed to $24 at the close of the market Thursday from $10 in the initial public offering June 21, 1991.

DeVry University, one of the nation's largest remaining for-profit college chains, is getting a new owner. The university's parent company, Downers Grove–based Adtalem Global Education, plans to transfer ownership of DeVry University and its Keller Graduate School of Management to Silicon Valley–based Cogswell Education, according to a news release. The deal, which still needs regulatory and accreditor approval, is expected to close in 2018.Smith, Ashley A. (December 6, 2017). "Handing Off DeVry". News. Inside Higher Ed. OCLC 721351944.

Now DeVry's parent company—Adtalem Global Education Inc.—is transferring ownership of the institution, along with Keller Graduate School of Management, to Cogswell Education LLC. DeVry and Keller together enroll nearly 30,000 students. Cogswell is the owner of Cogswell College, a California-based private for-profit institution of about 600 students, that specializes in art, game design, music and software engineering. [...] One condition calls for a minimum enrollment of 22,059 in May 2018. Cogswell can cancel the agreement if enrollments fall 1,500 students short of that target. DeVry's enrollment has fallen 21.4 percent year over year, to 19,287 as of September. Keller enrolls nearly 8,000 students.
DeVry Inc., the provider of technical and college degrees, was accused of filing false statements to the government and will turn over documents on recruiter pay and performance to the Justice Department civil division.

Education Department documents obtained by The Associated Press through an open-records request show that students filed nearly 24,000 federal fraud complaints between President Trump's Jan. 20, 2017, inauguration and April 30 this year, almost entirely against for-profit colleges.

The share price of Oakbrook Terrace–based DeVry Inc. remains flat after falling 20% Thursday, when the company reported lower-than-expected fall 2000 enrollment figures and revealed that they have been sued by three recent graduates.

But what hurt the company more, analysts said, was the modest 10% enrollment growth, compared with the expected 12% to 13%.
