I graduated from IADT Chicago in 2011. I tried getting my transcripts but was told that Brown University took over. I then found out that they too are closed. My student loan isn't closed. I feel like I wasted four years of my life and have nothing but a useless diploma. I still get calls about my loan and it's on my credit report. Why? I cannot get...

International Academy Of Design And Technology Fraud, Scam, Lies

For ANY IADT students past or present looking for a lawsuit there is a law firm in Tampa, Feldman Morgado who is working on one. Please call Candice Canales at [protected] for more info and to schedule a free 30 minute consult with the attorney. I went to their Vegas school and have nothing good to say. These "schools" are not schools, this a corporation who has built an empire peddling worthless degrees to hopeful students and defrauded our federal government out of billions of dollars.

International Academy Of Design And Technology DON'T go here they will screw you over and I have the proof

Do not go to this school because they will feed you a line of ### that is not true from the start. They promise you the world and they are lying to you to just steal your Pell Grant and other grants that you have and then say that you still owe them. This is really sad because it is all true. I have all the proof to show that this school is a scammer and theft. They have been on 60 minutes and they have fired all the people that talked to 60 minutes spilling the truth about them. 60 minutes even talked to 3 students that finished there and they yet couldn't find a job with their so called degrees. The biggest lier of them all is the dean of this school named Dawn Carlson. She does the samething as well and promises this and that to you. When it is all said and done, they are screwing you without KY and its not cool. I have contacted my state Congressman and I will be trying to end this and if you are with me please back me up. But here is the proof that I have for you all about how IADT is screwing us. The first ling below is the link to the 60 minutes interview about this. So in closing, goodbye IADT and bite me and I am coming home to you Full Sail I will see you soon and so will other IADT soon to be former students.

International Academy Of Design And Technology expensive and low value

High, high pressure admissions spiel. If you get on front of these people or on the phone with them you won't get off until you agree to go there or hang up. I went to visit the campus in Tampa and on my way out of the building I heard 2 people talking about how they are closing that school and some others including the online one. I'd say you can do much better than IADT with little effort. Accreditation at IADT is also bogus.

International Academy Of Design And Technology SCAM SCHOOL

I graduated in 2003, me and my boyfriend went and graduated from that school, by the time we found out it was bad we were almost done and our choice was waste all the money and not even have a paper to show for it or graduate, the money was spent anyways.. my credit is shot, I feel like I will never own anything, my boyfriend is now my fiancé and we will never get out of debt and be able to have a life because of this school.. We were young and they made so many promises and said that we were going to have jobs as soon as we got out of school..
I am looking for people who are in the same position we need to do something about this, they have ruined my life and so many other peoples..
When in school we had to go to the president and ask him to tell his teachers not to give us grades, that we were there to learn not to be given grades..
They need to be stopped...

Why when dealing with student loans you guys scam us and set us up for failure? I was enrolled in 2009 and I believe did not even finish due to hardship circumstances in 2011/2012 These loans should be discharged! A scam and even my own district would not recognize transcript at said time working in education starting in 2015! This is not okay. Those loans were a lie! You did not sell me a degree, it was fraud. Now I'm waiting out 10 years in the system as public service worker-with hardships on a head of household single parent to a severe disabled child. I deal in both education and healthcare and now you [censored]s have taken loans from great lakes and diced them up to [censored] my 750 credit score. How am I supposed to buy a house and leave anything for my child? America you disgust me! 😒 preying on me as a child barely out of high school an locking 3 generations of federally recognized tribal women in debt! I'm pissed 😤 My grandmother died with debt and served this country for over 50 [censored]ing years, grandfather died with a purple heart! My mother is dying and carries a huge part of this scammed debt and you would have her name smeared with unaccredited programs and [censored] fronts! She also served corporate and community for over 40 years! And I've been serving my community for years too in education and healthcare full time live in care provider on a hardship! What you do to natives is worse then small pox! I hope karma finds you pieces of [censored] well! I don't care if my idr is 0$ you are holding onto years of my life in which my daughter may not have the opportunity to see all thoughs years because of scum like you.! And you wonder why this country has gone to hell? I just cashed out my retirement to pay off credit debts and you [censored]s find a way to screw my credit just a little more for what? Get your [censored] together! Your pandemic lies and war propaganda can kiss my native [censored]!

I applied at IADT-Orlando maybe a year or so before I got out of high school. When I started that June, all seemed fine. But in Feb. 2006, I had surgery and I spoke with my instructors and let them know what was going on, they said for me to let them know the exact date, so I can turn in my work before and after the surgery. All my instructors stuck to...

International Academy Of Design And Technology Being charged a ludicrous &exit& fee even though school has dissolved

After legally taking a leave of absence, including signing all of the necessary papers, I was not informed that if I chose to then not return back to the program that I would be subject to an exit fee. But lo and behold about four months after not returning to the program, I have received threatening phone calls and letters from a collection agency claiming that I now owe IADT- Film School a whopping $1400 fee for leaving the program early. What adds insult to injury is the film school has completely dissolved, selling off all equipment and all studios and therefore no longer exist. I'm attempting to begin legal action against the school to absolve me from paying this ridiculous penalty.

that is truly rediculous! i'm guessing $1400 is the magic number for the school because i was just told that if i wanted to take internship by itself, that i would have to pay that much. but it's not even a class! so to pay that much and get nothing out of it is really ###ed!
