I.A.D. T Seattle
Biggest Scam Eve

I was fooled by an establishment that is pretending to be a highly accredited private college.

I enrolled at the International Academy of Design and Technology with the intent of acquiring a degree in Interior design. While attending, I heard many horror stories about IADT's practices, staff and credit transfer policies.

I became increasingly concerned with the establishments moral integrity, and started asking questions. The schools staff would become obviously nervous, defensive and would ask "why I wanted to know" when presented with my concerns. Treated like a nosy troublemaker for questioning them, they shuffled me back and forth amongst themselves, no one ever giving me a clear response about anything.

Fed-up, I met with the Student Services Coordinator Scott Latiolais, to withdraw. I no longer wanted to attend a college that acted as though they had something to hide.

Scott Latiolais feverishly tried to talk me out of withdrawing. That is when I learned my credits would not transfer. Never in a million years did I ever expect the credits I had worked so hard to earn would not be excepted by any other school, anywhere.in many cases IADT's sister schools will not even accept transfer credits! Their reasoning, they are "Nationally Accredited" not "Regionally Accredited". So, there is no state college, community college or tech school that will accept my credits.

Was this information given to me during enrollment? Of course. They bragged that the school was nationally accredited. They just didn't bother to explain that that means no other college recognizes their credits.

I keep thinking about how misleading and wrong they are for not being upfront. So six months later I am over ten thousand dollars in debt and have these credits that I can't do a damn thing with.

Be warned, IADT will promise you the world, but they have only one goal. Getting rich off the unsuspecting.
