Landmark's former mission was helping ADD students develop executive functioning skills so they could be successful in a four-year college program and in the workplace. My husband attended Landmark for one year 30 years ago, and it helped him immensely. More recently it has become a college that caters to autistic young adults and to students with varying degrees of mental issues. This type of school is certainly needed, but it should be marketed as such. That being said, Landmark is not well run by any measure. The dorms are deplorable - my son's dorm had no hot water for showering or washing. He had food poisoning no fewer than 3 times, after which he ate at local fast-food restaurants (and lost 35lbs in the process). Although we paid extra for the "transition to college (TaC) program, he received little help. There was one, full-time professional in charge of that program, with other "staff" positions filled by current or former students who had little to no training. When we requested that half of the TaC tuition be reimbursed when we withdrew him in December, we were told that they could not reimburse our money. Of my son's 13 friends there, all but three withdrew after the first semester. that says something about how deplorable the conditions are at Landmark College and about how dishonest their marketing has become. The school is poorly run - many untrained staff, poorly maintained dormitories, literally bad food - and I would not recommend it to any prospective family who is concerned about the well-being of their child.

Words that immediately come to mind when I think of Landmark College...Nepotism,  abuse of power, mismanagement, lack of communication,  misogynistic ("boys club" mentality), toxic, dysfunctional, socialistic, Big Brother, unorganized,  strong left-leaning political agenda, poorly maintained buildings and grounds, extremely expensive, shady (borderline illegal) business practices, mismanagement of funds, lack of accountability, unprofessional, unappreciative of hard working employees, unrealistic expectations and demands for some employees, complaints and grievances go ignored and unheard, discrimination towards Conservative students and faculty. How does Landmark treat their students?  Landmark tends to enable and coddle students, treating them like children and not young adults. They are obsessed with writing  care reports and policing the students.  They do not treat the students like young adults nor do they prepare them for success in the real world.  There are even faculty member
