Antonelli College 
Borrower Defense to Repayment Guide

If you attended Antonelli College and are struggling with student loan debt from a program that misled or deceived you, you're not alone—and you may qualify for full federal loan forgiveness through the Borrower Defense to Repayment program.

Antonelli College was the subject of multiple lawsuits and public scrutiny for misrepresentation, accreditation issues, and deceptive marketing practices—especially in its nursing programs. These allegations form a strong foundation for former students to file borrower defense claims and seek student loan relief.

Legal Actions and Investigations Against Antonelli College

🎓 Borden v. Antonelli College (2016)

A group of Practical Nursing Program (PNP) students filed suit alleging Antonelli College falsely advertised the nursing program as accredited. In reality, the Ohio Board of Nursing (OBN) revoked the program’s conditional approval in March 2016. Students were left without a valid path to licensure and unable to transfer their credits elsewhere—despite what they were told during enrollment.

🎓 Adams v. Antonelli College (2016)

This second lawsuit echoed many of the same allegations, including breach of contract, misrepresentation of transferability, and employment prospects. Students said they invested heavily in a program that lacked proper accreditation and ultimately failed to deliver on its promises.

🏛️ Senator Sherrod Brown’s Call for Federal Investigation (2016)

Following the nursing program’s suspension, U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown demanded an investigation by the U.S. Department of Education. He emphasized that students were saddled with unmanageable debt for degrees they could not use due to Antonelli’s misconduct.
