I hated Iona. The philosophy dept. is filled with arrogant asses who appear to have been hired more so because of their academic affiliation than due to merit. No one in the department works with the students closely and when I transferred out I discovered why - no one was familiar with the current research in their field. In fact, few publish. The faculty, once tenured, doesn't seem to give a damn.

Super Brilliant
A very poor excuse for a college. Iona's reputation is in tatters thanks to an administration which does not care about the direction of the college, its future, its faculty and above all, its students! It is deeply depressing that all the bad news about Iona has been leaked to the national newspapers and this has led to a serious decline in the enrollment of good, hard working students. Admissions are struggling to keep the college afloat and seem to be accepting anyone, who has the money upfront to pay the tuition, room and board. It is really noticable, that the current crop of students (Class of 2015) were more focused on partying, getting drunk and high than attending and participating in their classes! Therefore, I urge anyone who is in anyway academically inclined and wants to attend a college with a great reputation in the tri-state area, to look defintely elsewhere. As for me, this is my last semester at Iona and I look forward to getting out of New Rochelle and heading to a more prestigious college in the Fall of 2012!

Avoid - at ALL costs! Iona, seems to be going downhill academically and its reputation is also going down the plughole as well! The College has so much potential but the students and admin. do not seem to care where the college is heading in the future and at the moment the morale among the students and the admin. has hit rock bottom! Very sad as most studetns tranfer out to go to much better colleges!
