State-Specific Information

California: DeVry University is exempt from seeking approval to operate and offer educational programs from the California Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education in the Department of Consumer Affairs.

Utah: As a regionally accredited institution, DeVry University is exempt from registration requirements according to the Utah Postsecondary Proprietary School Act.

Texas: Eligibility to sit for the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam and be licensed as a CPA in Texas requires CPA applicants to have attended an institution accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), or by a specialized or professional accrediting organization such as the Association of Collegiate Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP). DeVry University currently has neither SACS nor specialized/professional accreditation, but it has been granted candidacy status with ACBSP and is now seeking accreditation of its business programs (including accounting). Candidacy status does not guarantee that programs will eventually be granted ACBSP accreditation. To alleviate the effect on DeVry students in Texas who sit for the CPA exam while DeVry’s accreditation with ACBSP is determined, the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy has issued an exemption of this requirement through January 20, 2013. This temporary exemption will allow our students to continue to sit for the CPA exam and allow us time to successfully complete our self-study process and be considered for full programmatic accreditation by ACBSP. Current information on the status of ACBSP accreditation is available from local academic leadership.
