😠 If I could give it 0 stars, I would. This school only cares about taking money from its students. It rewards white students with financial aid and higher scholarships even if their parents are rich.The students of color are treated terribly and end up paying 20,000+ per semester, even if they cannot... People often mention school, students,

    If I could give it 0 stars, I would. This school only cares about taking money from its students. It rewards white students with financial aid and higher scholarships even if their parents are rich.The students of color are treated terribly and end up paying 20,000+ per semester, even if they cannot afford it. POC students are ignored and are shown no sympathy by the school. Also, athletes are treated as royalty compared to everyone else. This school is a money trap, the only good thing about the school is that the professors are amazing. The administration and financial staff are generally unhelpful and robotic.

    Would rate zero stars if I could. It's a shame that the majority of the school does not care for you, because the very few people who are kind to you are mistreated and deserve to be teaching and working at a better educational institution. Because this is such a small school, they are desperate to do ANYTHING to keep you trapped here and make you somehow feel guilty for it. If you have a strong passion for something, you are better off pursuing it somewhere else. Don't let these people tell you what you can or cannot do. After one semester, I was already tired of the people, the drama, and the apathy this environment wields. Second semester was just to give Iona another chance. Things only got worse. The only plus side is that I was lucky enough to find a few good friends who do care, and deserve better as well.

    Terrible school the Academics are one of the worst I've ever been part of no academic help what's so ever I cannot believe that some professors are still here when students have complained. Other then that off-campus life is horrendous too unless your on a sports team here do not send your kids here.

    Did my BBA in Information Systems and Business Analytics here at LaPenta School of Business. Iona is a great little school with the resources to help students who are willing to take advantage of them. The quality of the education is good, and the quality of the alumni network is better. It’s proximity to NYC is a huge plus for post graduate work.

    An adorable place to be. You will get a high quality of everything that you would like to experience. I enjoyed my one year stay and will always speak about it fondly.

    Seen about 5 colleges in the ny area. I feel like they gave 100% to the set up and presentation, explain away all my questions. It’s definitely on the top of my list. Great school spirit 👍

    Great Education Dep't. Wonderful support and brilliant educators. Exhausting course load. But the trial by fire is what will make you an unparalleled teacher.
