How to Pay for Beauty School
Do you want to attend beauty school but are worried about the cost? Don’t let the cost hold you back from your dreams! While beauty school can be costly, many resources can make it more affordable! Like all higher education, beauty school is an investment in your future and career. From financial aid*, scholarships, and private loans, there are plenty of ways to help you pay for beauty school!
HOW TO PAY FOR BEAUTY SCHOOL
FINANCIAL AID
Financial aid is specifically used to help pay for college or career schools and can come from federal, state, schools, or private sources. There are a variety of different financial aid available and these includes, but are not limited to:
- Pell Grants
- Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants
- Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans
- Work Study Loans
The first step to seeing if you are eligible for financial aid is by filling out The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®). *Financial aid is available for those who qualify.
Here at Salon Success Academy, we want to make your education in beauty as accessible as possible! Call us at (877) 987-4247 and members from our admissions team will be happy to help! Our staff can educate you on all your options and can help fill out paperwork so you know what you can qualify for.
SCHOLARSHIPS
Scholarships are a type of ‘free’ money that typically comes from nonprofit organizations. They are a great way to help you pay for beauty school because they usually don’t need to be paid back!
We want to help keep student loans to a minimum. Along with financial aid, there are many different scholarships available for beauty school students. The American Association of Cosmetology Schools (AACS) partners with industry sponsors to provide deserving cosmetology students with scholarships and grants.

PRIVATE LOANS
When you receive a student loan, you are borrowing money that will eventually need to be repaid along with interest. You can apply for private loans through banks and credit unions. For help or a list of our preferred lenders, contact us at (877) 987-4247! A member of our admissions teams would be happy to answer any questions you may have!
PAYMENT PLANS
If you don’t qualify for financial aid and you don’t want to take a private loan, try talking with our financial aid team about payment plans. Schools will often work with you one-on-one to figure out manageable payment plans.
