                                   DEVRY INC.
                 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                  For the Quarter Ended September 30, 1999

                                  ----------


    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 as filed
         with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year ended
         June 30, 1999.

         The results of operations for the three months ended September 30,
         1999, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
         entire fiscal year.

    2.   Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 "Reporting
         Comprehensive Income" established standards for reporting and display
         of comprehensive income and its components in the financial
         statements.  The Company's only item that meets the definition for
         adjustment to arrive at comprehensive income is the change in
         cumulative translation adjustment. This amount was immaterial for the
         quarter ended September 30, 1999.

    3.   On July 1, 1999, the Company acquired substantially all of the
         tangible operating assets, trademarks and trade names and assumed
         certain liabilities of the Denver Technical College ("DTC"). These
         assets were purchased, for cash, from Educational Development
         Corporation and its stockholders. On this same date, the Company
         acquired certain land and buildings used by DTC from Niagara Limited
         Partnership for cash. DTC is one of the largest technical colleges in
         Colorado.  The college offers undergraduate and post-graduate degree
         programs in electronics, computer technology, business and medical
         technology at campuses in Denver and Colorado Springs.

         On July 2, 1999, Becker CPA acquired certain tangible operating
         assets, trademarks and trade names of Conviser Duffy CPA Review Course
         ("Conviser Duffy"). These assets were purchased, for cash, from a unit
         of Harcourt General, Inc. Conviser Duffy is a nationally known
         training firm preparing students to pass the CPA exam.

         Funding for the above acquisitions was obtained through borrowings
         under the Company's revolving credit facility.

         The acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method of
         accounting.  Accordingly, the purchase prices have been allocated to
         the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and
         liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The amounts
         recorded relating to the acquisitions are currently subject to
         adjustment as the Company has not yet completed the final allocation
         of the purchase prices.  The intangible assets, consisting primarily
         of goodwill, are being amortized using the straight line method over a
         25-year period for financial reporting purposes and will be deducted
         for tax reporting purposes over shorter statutory lives.

    4.   In July and August 1999, the Company granted options to purchase up to
         232,000 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.

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

Certain information contained in this quarterly report may constitute
forward looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Such statements may
involve risks and uncertainty that could cause actual results to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements.  Potential risks and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to, dependence on student
financial aid, state and provincial approval and licensing requirements, and
the other factors detailed in the Company's SEC filings, including those
discussed under the heading entitled "Risk Factors" in the Company's
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-22457) filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission

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 as included in the
Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30,
1999, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  All
references to per share amounts have been restated to reflect the June 19,
1998, two-for-one stock split.

Because of the somewhat seasonal pattern of the Company's enrollments
and its term starting dates, which affect the results of operations and the
timing of cash inflows, the Company's management believes that
comparisons of its results of operations should be made to the
corresponding period in the preceding year.  Comparisons of financial
position should be made to both the end of the previous fiscal year and to
the end of the corresponding period in the preceding year.  Because of the
seasonality of student enrollments, the Company's second and third quarters
have historically represented the periods of highest revenues and net income
within a fiscal year.


Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Tuition revenues for the first quarter increased by $22.1 million, or 26.1%,
compared to the first quarter of last year.  The increase in tuition revenue
was produced by several positive factors.  Enrollments at the Company's
undergraduate schools increased by 15.9% from last summer. This was the
26th consecutive term that exceeds prior-year results in total student
enrollment.  The total student enrollment includes DeVry Institutes and the
newly acquired Denver Technical College.  Also contributing to the
enrollment and revenue growth was the opening of a DeVry Institute
campus in New York last November for which there was no enrollment or
revenue in the summer quarter a year ago.  At Keller Graduate School,
enrollment for the term which began in June increased by 19.9% from last
June.  Compared to June of last year, Keller conducted classes in five new
sites, bringing the total to 31, including the distance education program.
Tuition increases approximating 5-6% were implemented by both DeVry
Institutes and Keller during the past year, contributing further to the tuition
revenue growth.  Another contribution to the revenue growth came from
increased enrollments in the Becker CPA review course and the July
acquisition of the Conviser Duffy CPA Review course, bringing to
approximately 30,000 the number of students enrolling annually.

<PAGE>9

Other Educational Revenues, composed primarily of sales of books and
supplies, increased because of sales to the increased number of students
attending the Company's educational programs.  Sales of the Becker CPA
Review course on CD-ROM, which are included in this revenue category,
continued their increase from the prior year.

Interest income on the Company's short-term investments increased slightly
from the first quarter of last year, reflecting higher cash balances which
were held through most of the quarter as a result of higher cash flow from
operations this year than last.

Cost of Educational Services increased by $14.6 million, or 25.9%, from
the first quarter of last year.  The increase reflects the instructional costs
associated with the acquisitions of Denver Technical College and Conviser
Duffy as well as the cost of additional facilities, faculty, staff, service and
supply costs associated with the new DeVry Institute and Keller Graduate
School sites.  Increased enrollments at the previously existing sites also
caused spending at these locations to increase.

Depreciation expense, included in the Cost of Educational Services,
increased by nearly $1.3 million from last year.  This increase reflects the
record investment last year, continuing into the first quarter, for the
expansion and upgrading of facilities and teaching equipment throughout
the system.

Student Services and Administrative Expense increased by almost $6.0
million, or 24.5%, from the first quarter of last year.  This increase reflects
the marketing and administrative costs associated with the acquired
operations and the marketing costs associated with student recruitment for
the Company's new teaching sites, including the West Hills, California,
DeVry Institute campus which opens in November.

Amortization expense of intangible assets, which is included in the Student
Services and Administrative Expense category, increased by $0.5 million,
reflecting the amortization of goodwill from the two acquisitions which
were completed at the beginning of the quarter.

Administrative efforts and all required remediation activities associated with
correcting Y2K computer processing deficiencies are nearly complete.  The
Company is also nearing completion of its contingency planning for
unexpected difficulties that it or its suppliers may encounter.  All
incremental spending on these efforts has been charged to expense as
incurred and is not material relative to the overall level of revenues or
expenses in the period.  Compared to last year, these costs were not an
increased element of spending in the quarter.

The Company's earnings from operations, before interest and taxes, were a
record for any first quarter period.  Operating margins, which have been
steadily rising over the corresponding year-ago periods, increased again
from 13.8% to 14.2%.  This increase  was achieved by higher operating
leverage on continued growth at the Company's previously existing
locations and cost controls over all areas of spending, offsetting the effect
of the new location startups at DeVry Institutes and Keller Graduate
School.

<PAGE>10

Interest expense increased by $0.4 million from last year because of
borrowings under the Company's revolving term loan agreement used to
complete the acquisitions of Denver Technical College and Conviser Duffy
CPA Review.

Net income of $9.9 million, or $0.14 per share, increased by more than
26% from last year, continuing the pattern of year-over-year earnings
increases in excess of 20%.


Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Cash generated from operations reached $24.3 million, substantially more
than the $12.9 million generated in the first quarter of last year.  Higher net
income, increased non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization,
higher accrued wages and expenses and increased accounts payable were the
primary contributors to the increased cash flow.  Although accounts
receivable increased from last year because of somewhat slower processing
of student financial aid under federal loan programs, this was offset by
higher deferred tuition revenues, reflecting the increase in student
enrollments and revenues that also contributed to the increased receivables.

Capital spending was more than $12.3 million in the quarter, reflecting
such major projects as completion of construction at the DeVry Institute
campus in West Hills, California, and the addition at the urban Chicago
DeVry campus, plus renovation and expansion at the Columbus DeVry
campus.

During the first quarter, the Company borrowed $40 million under its
revolving term loan to complete the acquisitions of Denver Technical
college and Conviser Duffy CPA review.  Subsequent to this borrowing,
the Company repaid $11 million of borrowings from cash on hand and cash
generated from operations.

The Company remains highly dependent upon the timely receipt of financial
aid funds.  If funds flow is temporarily delayed because of Y2K processing
difficulties, the Company could use its available cash resources and its
revolving term loan agreement until such time as funds flow was restored.
The U.S. Department of Education and most aid processing agencies report
that they are Y2K compliant.

The Company believes that current balances of unrestricted cash, cash
generated from operations and its revolving term loan agreement will be
sufficient to fund its operations for the foreseeable future.

PART II - Other Information

Item 5 - Other Information
- --------------------------

students to pass the CPA exam.

Funding for both of these acquisitions was obtained through borrowings
under the Company's revolving term loan.  Both acquisitions were
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.
