DePaul University

DePaul University is one of the 10 largest private universities in the United States, yet more than 98 percent of classes are taught by faculty members (many of whom are nationally recognized), and 86 percent of classes have 40 or fewer students. Learning takes place through an effective combination of service-learning courses, research projects, internships, cooperative education, and work-study programs.

Three percent of DePaul's 25,000 students (16,199 undergraduates and 7,795 grads) are international, hailing from more than 100 countries. There is also a close-knit alumni network of more than 140,000 people. DePaul's 36-acre campus is located in downtown Chicago, providing access to internships and learning opportunities with many of the top corporations and organizations in the United States.
