THE ABSOLUTE WORST SCHOOL!!!!Quite BrightCommunications
THE ABSOLUTE WORST SCHOOL!!!! DO NOT ATTEND. The professors only care about themselves, and they simply do not teach you especially in the communications department. You are given professors that are GRAD STUDENTS that are only a couple years older with 0 teaching experience. The courses seem cool, but when you take them, they do not know how to teach or they grade harshly for no reason. DO NOT ATTEND. FIND A BETTER SCHOOL. the graduation rate is only 38%, tuition is rising, and they have to shut down certain parts of the dorms because so many students are dropping out. There is a reason why the admissions rate has gone down. Do not go to this school please.

This place just tries to rip you offQuite BrightAnthropology
This place just tries to rip you off as much as they can. There are very few good majors that actually have good professors like safety science department. I just got charged with a parking ticket even though I paid for the spot. When I ask the people why I got it they couldn't tell me and then they said appealing it probably won't help. This is bullshit given the fact that I paid for the spot. Just another example of how IUP rips off students. Attendance rates are down and they are down for a reason. DO NOT COME HERE you will regret it.
