Ombudsperson Program
We at DeVry wish to serve the individual needs of those students attending
our institute. Normally student's concerns will be handled routinely by
separate offices within the school. However, there may be times when
a student or family member may need additional assistance to resolve or
fully understand a problem.
In an effort to satisfy student concerns, DeVry has created a
campus Ombudsperson Program. You may direct to the campus Ombudsperson
any inquiries that require personal attention. Each matter presented
will be reviewed objectively and responded to with reasonable promptness.
Issues may be presented either in person or in writing. After
investigation,
recommendations will be made for appropriate action resulting in fair
resolution.
Of course, all matters will be treated confidentially.
Students are welcome to see the Ombudsperson any time without an
appointment Monday-Friday, 8:00am-4:30pm, in Student Services, Room 243,
or call (732) 435-4880 ext. 3202. Also email is available: ombudsperson@devry.edu.
Together we will endeavor to overcome those obstacles which might
otherwise interfere with student success.
