Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019
Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
Other Contractual Arrangements, page 74
1.It appears the cash interest payments on your debt obligations may represent a material
contractual obligation. Because this table is aimed at increasing transparency of cash flow,
we believe these payments should be included in the table or disclosed in the footnotes
using the same time frames stipulated in the table. Please also disclose any assumptions
you made to derive these amounts. If you choose not to include these payments, a footnote
to the table should clearly identify the excluded item and provide any additional
information that is material to an understanding of your cash requirements. Refer to
Item 303(a)(5)303(a)(5) of Regulation S-K and footnote 46 to SEC Release No. 33-8350.

Note 4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition , page 88
2.We note that for Becker test preparation revenue is recognized when access to the course
materials is delivered to the customer and that for Adtalem Brazil and EduPristine test
preparation course instruction revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the
applicable instruction delivery periods. Please tell us in further detail why the revenue
recognition method for the test preparation services differs between Becker and Adtalem
Brazil and EduPristine. In this regard, we note from the Becker website that Premium and
Pro packages include various live online and/or live courses, success coaching, and
personal tutoring in addition to pre-packaged course materials.
In closing, we remind you that the company and its management are responsible for the
accuracy and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or
absence of action by the staff.
You may contact Aamira Chaudhry at 202-551-3389 or Lyn Shenk at 202-551-3380 with
