About DePaul University

The nation’s largest Catholic university, DePaul, is nationally recognized for the diversity of its student body, the strength of its service-learning curriculum, its commitment to sustainability and its academic rigor. Highly ranked programs in its 10 colleges and schools include business, psychology, multicultural education, digital cinema, video game development, theatre and music.

With more than 24,000 students and another 3,000 faculty and staff members, DePaul is a city within the city. Our students come from all 50 states and more than 80 countries; about 75 percent are from the metropolitan area.

DePaul’s two primary campuses are located in retail and housing hot-spots: the Lincoln Park neighborhood on Chicago’s Near North Side and the South Loop, close to the Art Institute, Millennium Park and the State Street and Michigan Avenue shopping districts.

In fact, college students spend more than $25 million with Loop-based retailers annually, according to a study sponsored by the Greater State Street Council and the Central Michigan Avenue Association; about one-seventh of those students attend DePaul.
