On a graduate degree application, select "yes" for Employer Cohort and then choose your company from the drop-down list. For an undergraduate application, choose "Corporate Partner Cohort" and then your employer from the drop-down menu on the admission application. In both cases, the application fee will be waived and you will be eligible for the discount. DePaul will verify your employment.

To update your status, go to Campus Connect. Select the Profile tile. Next, click Work Experience in the left-hand navigation bar. Click the Add Work Experience button. Update your current employer information by selecting your employer/professional association from the drop-down box.
You will be required to attach proof of your employment as instructed on the Work Experience panel. Please do not submit any password-protected documents.
