                                  DeVRY INC.
                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
           For the Quarter and Six Months Ended December 31, 1996



      1. The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
         DeVry Inc. (the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. These
         financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management,
         contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring
         adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial condition and
         results of operations of the Company.

         The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in
         conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
         thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
         fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 and in conjunction with the Company's
         Quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 1996,
         each as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

         The results of operations for the three months and six months ended
         December 31, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of results to be
         expected for the entire fiscal year.

         Certain reclassifications have been made to the December 1995
         financial statements to conform with the June 1996 and December 1996
         presentation.

      2. In July and August 1996, the Company granted options to purchase up
         to 142,500 shares of the Company's common stock under the Amended
         and Restated Stock Incentive Plan, the 1991 Stock Incentive Plan and
         the 1994 Stock Incentive Plan.

      3. On November 19, 1996, the Company's board of directors authorized a
         two-for-one spilt of the Company's common shares in the form of a 100
         percent stock dividend.  The stock split was paid on December 18, 1996,
         to shareholders of record on December 2, 1996.  The par value of the
         additional shares arising from the split has been reclassified from
         retained earnings to common stock.  In addition, all references in the
         financial statements to the number of shares outstanding, per share
         amounts, stock option data and market prices of the Company's common
         stock have been restated to reflect the stock split.

      4. During the first six months of fiscal 1997, the Company signed
         agreements for the lease of new DeVry Institute facilities in
         Alpharetta, Georgia and Calgary, Alberta, Canada.  The Alpharetta
         facility is expected to be occupied in the fourth quarter of fiscal
         1997 and is a new Institute location.  The Calgary facility is expected
         to be occupied in fourth quarter of fiscal 1998 and will replace the
         Company's current leased Institute facility in Calgary.  With the
         inclusion of these new agreements, commitments under non-cancelable
         operating leases at December 31, 1996 are as follows:

                     Year Ended
                      June 30,

                       1997           $12,490,000
                       1998            12,780,000
                       1999            12,540,000
                       2000            11,440,000
                       2001            11,320,000
                     Thereafter        81,850,000

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
         Financial Condition

The following discussion of the Company's results of operations and financial
condition should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements of the Company and the notes thereto.  All references to per share
amounts have been restated to reflect the December 18, 1996, stock split.


Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Tuition revenues, which increased by 15% in the first quarter from the year
ago period, increased again in the second quarter, growing nearly 23% from the
year ago quarter.  The increase in tuition revenues was produced by several
positive factors including enrollment increases at the DeVry Institutes where
total student enrollment for the summer and fall semesters increased by 4.6%
and 4.3%, respectively, from last year.  This is the seventeenth and eighteenth
consecutive term of increased total student enrollment vs. prior year at the
DeVry Institutes.  At KGSM, total enrollment for the term which began in
November increased more than 22% from last November.  Tuition revenues also
increased because of tuition rate increases which became effective at the
DeVry Institutes in March 1996 and at the Keller Graduate School in
September 1996.  In June 1996, the Company acquired the Becker CPA Review.
Revenues from Becker courses which prepare students to take the national
Certified Public Accountant and Certified Management Accountant exams also
contributed to the Company's revenue increase in both quarters.

Other educational revenues, comprised primarily of sales of books and supplies,
increased because of sales to the increased number of students attending the
Company's educational programs.

Interest income on the Company's short-term investments decreased from last
year because of lower cash balances available for investment throughout the
period.

The cost of educational services for the first half increased by nearly 17%
from last year, rising at approximately the same rate in both the first and
second quarters.  This increase reflects the additional facility, faculty and
staff costs associated with the Becker CPA Review and the higher wage, benefit,
supply and service expenses associated with growing student enrollments at the
DeVry and KGSM locations.  Depreciation expense increased by more than
$1 million in the six months vs. last year, as a result of extensive capital
improvements and additions in the past year, particularly those related to the
opening of the new DeVry Institute in North Brunswick, New Jersey, and the
upgrading of school laboratories and teaching equipment throughout the system.

After increasing by only 8% in the first quarter, spending on student services
and administrative expenditures, comprised largely of new student recruitment
expenses, increased by 19% from last year for the first two quarters combined.
This increase reflects the marketing costs associated with the Becker CPA
Review operations and the marketing costs associated with generating the higher
new student enrollments at DeVry and KGSM for the terms which have already
begun this fiscal year and for the terms which will begin in the coming months.
Included in this increase in student services and administrative expense is
the nearly $788,000 in amortization of goodwill and intangibles, mostly
associated with the Becker CPA acquisition.

<PAGE>9
The Company's pre-tax earnings from operations before interest expense were a
record for the second quarter and six months.  Operating margins, which have
been increasing consistently year over year, increased again in this quarter to
14.7% vs. 13.9%  in the prior year period.  For the first half, operating
margins climbed to 13.9% from 13.2% last year.  Operating margins were
favorably affected by the inclusion of Becker CPA results, where operating
margins have historically been high, by the higher revenues and improved
facility utilization from the increased enrollments at the DeVry Institutes and
KGSM and by continued cost containment measures.

Interest expense in the quarter and the half increased from last year because
of higher outstanding debt levels resulting from the acquisition, for cash, of
the Becker CPA operations in June.  At December 31, 1996, total-funded debt had
increased by nearly $27,000,000 from the same date last year.

The provision for income taxes in the second quarter continued at a lower rate
than last year because of a different mix in the earnings from domestic vs.
foreign operations and because of a lower effective state income tax rate.

Net income of $6,781,000 or $0.20 per share, was a record for the quarter,
increasing by 26% from the same quarter of last year. This continues the
unbroken pattern of year-over-year quarterly earnings increases since the first
quarter of fiscal 1992.  For the first half, net income has increased by
nearly 25%.


Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Because of the somewhat seasonal pattern of the Company's enrollments and its
term starting dates which affect the timing of cash inflows, comparisons of
financial position should be made to both the end of the previous fiscal year
and to the corresponding period of a year ago.

Cash generated from operations in the first half was approximately equal to the
amount generated in  the first half of last year, marking a sharp improvement
from the first quarter.  Higher earnings, plus the increased non-cash charges
for depreciation and amortization, contributed to a higher operating cash flow
but were offset by increases in restricted cash and decreases in accounts
payable and accrued expenses that exceeded the related benefits from changes in
deferred tuition revenue and advance tuition payments.

Accounts receivable, net of the related increase in deferred tuition revenue
generated by higher enrollment and revenue levels, are approximately equal to
the level achieved last year, reflecting a continuation of the good collection
performance on balances owed by students similar to the collection experience
in the past several years.

Included in the accounts receivable were the receivable balances from students
attending the Becker CPA classes which were not included in the Company's
reported balances last year.

Capital expenditures for the half decreased by $3.3 million from last year,
reflecting completion of construction payments and June 1996 occupancy of the
DeVry Institute New Jersey campus.

<PAGE>10
During  the second quarter, the Company repaid $3 million of its revolving loan
facility using existing cash balances and cash generated from operations.  For
the half, debt repayments totaled $17.5 million, an increase of $1.5 million
from repayments during the first half of last year.  Taking advantage of the
financing flexibility from this unsecured revolving line of credit, future
borrowings and/or repayments will be based upon the Company's seasonal cash
flow cycle and payment requirements for capital spending.

The Company believes that current balances of unrestricted cash, cash generated
from operations and, if needed, its revolving loan facility will be sufficient
to fund its operating needs and capital spending for the foreseeable future.
