I chose to study in the School for New Learning (SNL) because… the classes are tailored according to my schedule. I was able to return to school transferring all of my credits from a college I attended seventeen years ago. And SNL came highly recommended by my friend and SNL alumnus, Robert Montgomery.
I decided to attend DePaul because… DePaul has a reputation of educational excellence.
The learning environment here at DePaul is… inviting, open and diverse.
My favorite professors at DePaul are… Betta LoSardo and Greg Gilmore!
Here, the diversity of students, faculty and staff… makes the environment more comfortable for me; I feel very welcome at DePaul. And due to the diversity, I feel there’s more to learn from the people and not just what is on the pages of a textbook.
As a School for New Learning student, building my own customized program has…continued to encourage me to push forward with my degree. I am not concerned with my kids because I have full support from home. I can take classes on campus or online and even on weekends!
My experience as an adult student at DePaul has been... wonderful!
The best thing about DePaul is… the level of education offered, the fact the professors care about the students and their goals and the interaction with other adult students.
The one thing I’d like to say to students considering DePaul… is DePaul should be considered as a definite top choice!
