New York Institute of Art and Design Tracking Order Status

Good information on how to design, draft, and decorate interior spaces. Good on the how to set up a business in this field. Trying to get help online felt impossible nobody seemed to want to help. The teacher always tore me down but gave me an “A” but sometimes she would fail me yet only grade me on one room. Very unorganized had to wait awhile for them to grade my work. Too much money. Aggravated.

Helloo, I’m Nina! I just joined NYIAD today on 06-22-2023!! The course I’m taking is “HOME STAGING”. I can say that this school is legit and it is pretty much accredited. I like how everything is at ur own pace. Everything is easy to use. Very organized! So far I’ve had no issues.

I did their “interior design” program. Which in reality in the end is told, you will be an interior decorator at most. So no real chances of getting areal job in the end, unless you open your own people and start scamming people that you actually know something. I don’t recommend it in hopes of getting any design job in the end, unless it’s just for yourself to decorate you house.

So, I've been searching for a good school, and I thought NYIAD was a "perfect" fit. Well, I came out disappointed. While they do have a good curriculum, my Home Staging instructor ("Janet Ramin") was the least bit helpful on answering a very important question. Neither did she have ANY knowledge on my question: "do I need to stage a business or design it the way I like it?" - very simple. She said she had no knowledge on that type of business - however, she did tell me that this curriculum was about staging a home for sale. But she did NOT provide me with any information on someone from the school who COULD help me. I found her answer to be very dismissive and quite ignorant. That did NOT make me want to pursue any kind of home staging certificate, even though, I only have two more payments to make on my account; which is why I found this experience to be VERY disappointing. No fun. I give the school "2 stars," although I'm not even sure if they deserve THAT? :/

I am extremely disappointed. Paid for the class up front believing it was going to be an exciting experience but it's turned out to be chaos and confusion and conflict. I submit assignments and get conflicting responses from two different instructors. An instructor referred me to a student adviser to query "how to do a drawing" I challenged the background and qualifications of the instructors who respond by voice messages or e-mails and got no response. I challenged the background and qualifications of to instructors and was referred back to the first instructor who allegedly reviewed my assignments. I paid for an Interior Design Course and what I am getting is videos, and e-mails that I could google and obtain the same information. I've submitted assignments through the website portal and via e-mail directly to the instructor to no avail. They offer a RIDQC Certification at a discount price if you pay for it up front but whose to say that you will ever finish the course if the instructors claim they did not get assignments in the same e-mail message that they said your grade has been posted! SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG! I should have read some of these reviews before I paid for this class.I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND IT SINCE THERE ARE OTHER PROGRAMS OUT THERE Beware be wise.
