Item 1.01.     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 30, 2008, DeVry Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an agreement with William Blair Capital Partners VII QP, L.P., ClearLight Partners, LLC, and the stockholders and optionholders of U.S. Education Corporation (“USEC”) to acquire USEC.  USEC is the privately held holding company for Apollo College and Western Career College.  Apollo College and Western Career College, headquartered in Mission Viejo, California, prepare students for careers in health care through certificate and associate degree programs in such fields as nursing, biotechnology, medical and dental assisting, dental hygiene, respiratory therapy, pharmacy tech, lab tech, physical therapy tech and vet tech.

The purchase price is $290 million in cash, payable at closing and is subject to adjustment for working capital and other items.  The Company intends to finance the transaction through a combination of cash and debt, with the Company utilizing its existing credit facility and potentially borrowing against its holdings of auction rate securities.  The transaction is structured as a purchase of approximately 99% of the common stock and all of the preferred stock of USEC and a “short-form” merger under the Delaware General Corporation Law to acquire the remaining shares of USEC that are held by a minority stockholder.  The agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and conditions, as well as indemnification provisions subject to specified limitations and an indemnification provision in favor of the Company, which is not subject to any limitations, relating to claims made by the minority stockholder as a result of the consummation of the transaction.  The transaction is subject to regulatory approvals, including the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, various state and federal educational accreditations, and other customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the first fiscal quarter of 2009.  The agreement is subject to termination if the transaction is not completed by October 31, 2008.
