(Reuters) - Apollo Group Inc , owner of the largest for-profit college in the United States, posted a 60 percent drop in quarterly profit and forecast a weak 2013 due to lower student enrollments.
The company said it will cut about 800 jobs, and announced other actions to save costs by $300 million by fiscal year 2014.
Apollo Group will also realign its ground locations, impacting about 4 percent of total enrollment, or about 13,000 students, it said in a statement.
