Item 7.01.  Regulation FD Disclosure.

On December 15, 2015, DeVry Education Group Inc. (“DeVry Group”) announced that its subsidiary, DeVry Educacional do Brasil S/A (“DeVry Brasil”), acquired a 96.4% interest in Grupo Ibmec Educacional S.A., a leading provider of high-quality undergraduate and graduate programs in Brazil and owner of Ibmec, with campuses in Rio de Janeiro, Brasilia and Belo Horizonte, and Metrocamp, with a campus in Campinas.   A copy of the press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.  

Also on December 15, 2015, DeVry Group issued a press release announcing that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) had authorized a ninth share repurchase program, which allows DeVry Group to buy back up to $100 million of its common stock through December 31, 2017. This new repurchase program will commence on January 1, 2016. The timing and amount of any repurchase will be determined by management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. These repurchases may be made through the open market, including block purchases, or in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The buyback will be funded through available cash balances and/or borrowings, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.  A copy of the press release is included as Exhibit 99.2 to this Form 8-K.
