Devry is a decent school. However, like other for-profit universities, it is expensive.
I have an alternative for you to consider. University of Illinois has an online BS degree in computer science. Tuition costs are $201 per credit hour which is less than half of DeVry tuition. The only catch is you have to have an AA degree first.
If you don't have an AA degree, you should be able to get one from a local community college. If you can't attend locally, you can get an AA degree online from several schools. Fort Hays State University has an AA program for $137 per credit hour.

Good luck

Overall, DeVry isn't really considered to be a real university. While they give decent technical training, generally their degrees beyond that aren't much respected by other schools. Therefore, if you want to transfer elsewhere or go to grad school at some point in your life, you may have to start all over again. If there is not chance you would go to college if not for this, then it is fine.

They have a very good reputation in Michigan.
