About This School
Academy of Hair Design-Grenada is a private for-profit institution located in Grenada, Mississippi with approximately 21 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $18,742 per year. The graduation rate is 74%, and the typical graduate earns $18,900 within 10 years of enrollment.
Students who are focused, career-minded, and ready to enter the cosmetology field quickly — rather than pursue a traditional four-year path — are the best fit here. The debt picture is actually one of the more manageable you'll find in this sector: graduates leave with a median of just $6,786, which is well below average for vocational programs, and the 74% graduation rate suggests most students who start do finish. That said, the earnings data is the number I'd ask a family to sit with carefully — median income 10 years out is $18,900, which is modest even for a cosmetology career and means loan repayment, even on relatively low debt, will require budgeting. At $18,742 per year in net price, you're also paying a meaningful amount for a program that leads to earnings that are tight by most household standards. My honest recommendation: before enrolling, talk to working cosmetologists in the Grenada area about their actual income and client volume, and make sure this credential opens the specific doors you're expecting — because the financial margin for error here is slim.
