Item 1.01.        Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

     On August 9, 2005, DeVry Inc. (the "Company") entered into a letter
agreement (the "Letter Agreement") with Dennis J. Keller, the Board Chair of the
Company's Board of Directors ("Keller"), and DeVry University, Inc. The Letter
Agreement amends that certain 2002 Employment Agreement, dated as of July 1,
2002, among the Company, Keller and DeVry University, Inc., which had previously
been amended by that certain letter agreement, dated November 2, 2004, between
the Company and Keller (collectively, the "Original Employment Agreement"). A
complete copy of the Letter Agreement is filed with this Current Report as
Exhibit 10.3 and incorporated herein by this reference.

     The Letter Agreement provides for, among other things, the following: (i)
an amendment of Section 2(b) of the Original Employment Agreement to provide
that Keller is not obligated to devote more than one-half of his business time
(as opposed to substantially all of his business time, as required pursuant to
the Original Employment Agreement) to the performance of his duties,
responsibilities and obligations under his terms of employment; (ii) an
amendment of Section 5(a) of the Original Employment Agreement to provide that,
effective as of August 9, 2005, Keller's annual base salary is $323,044, as
amended from the previous annual rate of $646,088; (iii) an amendment of the
Original Employment Agreement to delete Section 5(b) thereto in its entirety,
which section had required the Company to pay to Keller an annual bonus as
determined and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company in the Board's
sole discretion; and (iv) an agreement and acknowledgment by the parties to the
Letter Agreement that Keller's term of employment with the Company pursuant to
the Original Employment Agreement shall be terminated on June 30, 2006 and that
such termination shall not be deemed a termination for "Cause", a "resignation
or retirement that is not a Qualified Resignation or Retirement" or a
"Constructive Dismissal" (as those terms are defined in the Original Employment
Agreement). Except in the case of death, disability, constructive dismissal or a
resignation or retirement, following June 30, 2006 Keller shall be employed by
the Company as a senior advisor pursuant to a Senior Advisor Agreement, by and
between the Company, DeVry University, Inc. and Keller dated as of July 1, 2002.
