    Terrible experience trying to apply to the 2 year RN program. I was told by the admissions department I'd have no problem getting into the program. Amazing college transcript from Marywood and excellent recommendations from college professors. Then was denied into the program because I fell in their admissions room and broke my ankle. The one woman from admissions kept calling me harassing me (not about my broken ankle) only once to see how I was doing. Multiple other times she called to see whose number it was. Then she said she's deleting my number finally. They dont care about your previous college experience and grades and recommendations.

    Stay away from the Surg Tech program unless you want to be treated like a doormat. I had so much love for Lackawanna but they really need to do better with that department, what a let down! I am thankful for all the other professors who helped me along the way and guided me when applying to a Nursing Program at a different school.

    DO NOT GO HERE. I attended this school and the professionalism as well as the curriculum is far from being on point. The instructors passed people who they liked and kept people who were yes men. They do not follow their programs by the book as they are supposed to. They make up their own rules but expect you to follow what you signed up for in your paperwork. We had someone fail a test but they passed him because they liked him but failed someone else because he would call them out if something wasn't done by the book. This college and their teachers are extremely shady. All they want is your money and once they have it they do not care about you. You have to fight tooth and nail to get it back. I cannot believe there isn't a class action lawsuit with this college. AGAIN STAY AWAY.

    My friend goes here and she is able to get a very good education - the professors really do seem to care!
