ITT Report
Proof of ITT Tech’s Massive Scale of Fraud and Abuse
Dreams Destroyed by ITT Tech
The Dreams Destroyed ITT Report
Our recently released report details the massive scale of fraud and abuse by the defunct for-profit college ITT. The report presents the largest volume of evidence compiled on ITT, and the documents unequivocally show that ITT was not a legitimate educational institution: it systematically and brazenly lied to students in order to profit from their federal financial aid.
Many of the documents cited as evidence in Dreams Destroyed are subject to a series of Protective Orders in the ITT bankruptcy case. This means that the Court has only allowed the Department of Education and former ITT students, who use these redacted documents in Proceedings before the Department of Education, including for Borrower Defense Applications, to have these documents. By requesting the documents cited as evidence in Dreams Destroyed, you certify that you are a former ITT student, and that you will only use these documents in a submission to the Department of Education. If you would like to request the documents cited as evidence in Dreams Destroyed, please e-mail us at info@ppsl.org.

Why should you still care about ITT?
Watch this video on the report and why you should care about it.
“Students should not be held accountable for ITT and the decades of damage that they have created. There are thousands of families that they have separated due to debt, have fallen ill, and have irreparable damage drowning in debt – they deserve a second chance in life.
ITT cheated us out of an education and killed our dream to one day get ahead. The time that we have wasted there can never be brought back. The pain and suffering that we have endured have no dollar value.”
— Jorge Villalba, former ITT student
