This song is epic!!!!
i FINALLY managed to rip the song from the commercial! msg me for it
the song is awesome
what is the song. its cool
@TheDevryUniversity So… there isnt another part to the song?
What’s the music called?
@TheDevryUniversity no problem
@WickeddArtist thank you for the great feedback, we definitely know now that our community loves this song. We’ll certainly relay this message to the appropriate people so they are aware of how much you guys enjoy the music and commercial. Thanks!
@TheDevryUniversity I know you hear this alot. But the music really is beautiful. I love orchestral music and I think it really helps get a point across with a commercial. It fits and sets the mood, but itsn’t loud or lyrical, so it doesn’t distract from the commercial itself.
@Zach979 Hello there and we’re glad you enjoy the music. Like mentioned on previous posts, the composer works at Musik Vergnuegen, an LA-based music house. This piece was composed specifically for DeVry University, and recorded in Prague by a live orchestra.
Is there a specific name to the song? I would love to here a full version if there is one.
Thanks
I like the song…
luv the song
Love the music.
@TheDevryUniversity do you think you could make it available for download for the public or is there some sort of copyright issue? because this song really is amazing
Could there be a video with just the song? And maybe a longer version? I’m always so intrigued by it, it’s awesome.
@jrummer221 thank you! We’ve actually received a great amount of compliments on this song.
the song is amazing!

@funyongod Sure do! The composer works at Musik Vergnuegen, an LA-based music house. This piece was composed specifically for DeVry University, and recorded in Prague by a live orchestra.
@mundotaku
Good. At least you admitted it. That’s the first step to recovery. I’m proud of you.
(and yes, I know you were trying to be sarcastic, but regardless, it’s true, so it really isn’t sarcasm.) I don’t blindly insult people – I just call it as I see it.
Does anyone know the theme song in the backround of this video?
@Ky772 Yes, so I am dumb because I got a degree from a real school and I am worry because of people who get in this fraud. I give you arguments, you respond insults. Yes, I am the dumb one.
@mundotaku
Astericks around their reputation? How dumb are you? The “bad” rep is based on online morons like you who couldn’t hack it and are bitching about it instead of taking responsibility. So you try to run away to another school, only to be turned down – not because of the school, but because you’re a subpar student. Don’t blame the school. It has numerous accolades. You, OTOH, can’t even put up a point on youtube without sounding like a kid with the IQ of a vegetable.
@mundotaku
First off, yes, it is against the law to falsify information if you’re looking to earn a profit from it. THINK about that, moron. And second, no, the average tuition for a BA degree is about 30-50K in public schools, depending on how big the school is. Third, a school is accredited based on it’s location. Why would a school that is in one region be accredited in another region, dumbass? You didn’t study shit so don’t even bother trying to BS me, kid.
I AM NOT……. in any way going to go into debt trying to work for someone else. my moto is if you are going to get a degree go into to debt doing something you want to do for a living, not to work for someone who could care less of you succeed or fail.
My college had a big job fair today. They told all of us to make resumes and show up dressed to impress. We got there, and every job was demanding that we had a bachelors degree and 3 years of work experience. note, this was a job fair at a community college! What happened to the days when people took on apprentices, and taught someone a traid? I’m tired of school, and it teaches me nothing practical.
What gives? No discussion yet on the highly anticipated newly released book “You Have A College Degree, Now What?”
What did everyone else think of the newly acclaimed book “You Have A College Degree, Now What?”

PERSONAL CONTACTS! that’s all you need
I always enjoy the music that howcast puts in.

you don’t need a degree to have knowledge. That’s just obvious.
So, your statement is based on the number of people one can list.
That’s robust.
you really think Gates copied mac? Why are you not in a mac then?
It sucks.
Dammit. It sucks that nowadays you need a college degree to have a career in practically any field. I remember when all you needed was just a hs diploma & some training & you could have a career in no time :/
yah but bill gates dropped out of harvard i think you knew what he was doing
