My experience at International American University has been incredibly rewarding. The courses are well-designed and the professors are experts. I felt challenged but supported.

The faculty are knowledgeable and genuinely invested in student success. The professors are excellent. The classes are challenging but fair, and I feel like I am actually learning skills I can use in a job later.

The career fairs and networking events are the University's strongest asset. The campus is beautiful and feels safe, which was important to me. It’s a great place to learn. I would definitely recommend this school to others
I pursued my MBA from this prestigious university. The professors are wonderful, they are caring and really good at the subject they teach. In addition, most of professors do not force you to buy the books listed for the class, instead they give you options to access the material. They have many resources to help students succeed.

Most importantly, pursuing a degree here in this university is affordable. I will recommend International American University to everyone.
As I near the end of my MBA journey at the International American University, I can confidently say it has been a truly rewarding experience. One of IAU’s biggest strengths is its small, close-knit community. Unlike larger universities, the smaller class sizes create a more personal and supportive learning environment. The student body are composed of an eclectic mix of people with different backgrounds and from all over the world. This makes networking and making friends both fun and interesting because you learn a lot from each other.

The faculty here are not just professors, but real mentors who genuinely care about their students’ growth and success. They bring practical, real-world experience into the classroom and are always approachable and encouraging.

The facilities are clean and modern, and the location in the heart of Koreatown, Los Angeles is a huge plus, with great food and easy access to transportation. The program is practical, well-structured, and highly relevant to real business situations. I’m truly grateful for my experience at IAU.

International American University has really been my second home and a defining part of my studies and career. I am a graduating Master of Business Administration student, and I believe IAU has been the best I ever had. I have been taught so much in a time-based, contemporary curriculum but everything is hands on and practically relevant during my degree in the industry. They have knowledgeable professors who are very approachable and truly care about students from the bottom of their minds. They do not have any illusions of their professionalism, they impart high standards of education, demand high levels of thinking and they give their advice with the same guidance (in the classroom and outside of the classroom) at all times. Such an intellectual background has equipped me to flourish in today's demanding business climate.

The special element that distinguishes IAU is its environment, where students feel supported at every step of the way. The staff support staff is engaged, responsive and a huge asset to the college. "I realized how much I appreciated its flexibility of the online and hybrid learning format and the fact that I was able to handle work while school and my coursework and study all the while obtaining my American degree as a full time worker." IAU has a welcoming and inclusive community on campus.

The diversity of students, interesting stuff going on, and cooperative environment creates friendships, camaraderie, and personal achievements. I gained good learning materials, a comfortable classroom and sophisticated website to study efficiently and effectively – making a complete university experience. And when I think back over my experience at International American University, I do so with both pride and gratitude. I have here gained experience, skill development, confidence and professional confidence which is good for my future career, and life success.

IAU is an institution that really cares about the quality of student work, personal development, and academic success. I am thankful to International American University and for welcoming me as a whole, for backing my goals, and for giving me a very enriching environment to be educated and for the future. If a flexible and supportive academic environment is one with good quality I strongly recommend IAU.

International American University has truly been one of the best parts of my academic journey here in Los Angeles. As a student coming from abroad, I was honestly nervous about adjusting to a new school environment, but IAU made everything feel welcoming from day one.

The professors don’t just teach—you can really feel that they want you to succeed. They explain lessons clearly, they’re easy to approach, and they understand that many students are balancing work, life, and school. I appreciate how supportive the staff is too; they always guide you with patience, especially when it comes to enrollment, paperwork, and academic planning.

What I love most is the flexibility and the diverse student community. You meet people from all over the world, each bringing their own story, and that makes learning so much richer and more interesting. The classes are practical and connected to real-life situations, which really helped me build confidence in my field.

IAU is a small school, but that’s exactly what makes it feel personal. You’re not just a number—you’re a student they actually know.

If you’re looking for a school that’s supportive, friendly, and focused on helping you grow, IAU is a great place to be. I’m grateful for everything I’ve learned and for the people I’ve met along the way.
