After legally taking a leave of absence, including signing all of the necessary papers, I was not informed that if I chose to then not return back to the program that I would be subject to an exit fee. But lo and behold about four months after not returning to the program, I have received threatening phone calls and letters from a collection agency claiming that I now owe IADT- Film School a whopping $1400 fee for leaving the program early. What adds insult to injury is the film school has completely dissolved, selling off all equipment and all studios and therefore no longer exist. I'm attempting to begin legal action against the school to absolve me from paying this ridiculous penalty.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.

that is truly rediculous! i'm guessing $1400 is the magic number for the school because i was just told that if i wanted to take internship by itself, that i would have to pay that much. but it's not even a class! so to pay that much and get nothing out of it is really ###ed!
