Not a bad deal for the students, though. Iona is a great school.

They are just purchasing the campus.  If you want to go to Iona, you can pay an additional $5k/yr for the privilege.

The article said they're working on an agreement to let the students finish their degrees at Iona... ?

Probably working out the transfer equivalencies, so that if you have 60cr, you're going in as a junior and have 60cr to complete.  Or 90-to-90 with 30cr left, whatever.

Rather than letting them finish at the same price.

Colleges were closing before Covid and now you'll see even more closing because they weren't in great financial shape to begin with.
