About This School
Avalon Institute-Phoenix is a private for-profit institution located in Phoenix, Arizona with approximately 219 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $17,439 per year. The graduation rate is 73%, and the typical graduate earns $23,000 within 10 years of enrollment.
Students drawn to a specialized vocational or cosmetology-focused program in the Phoenix area may find this small school worth a look, but the financial picture deserves serious scrutiny before committing. The median debt at graduation is a genuinely encouraging $6,332 — well below the national average — and the 73% graduation rate suggests most students who enroll do finish. The concern I'd flag directly: median earnings of $23,000 ten years after enrollment is quite low, which means even that modest debt load can feel heavy when you're building a career in this field. At a net price of $17,439 per year, you need to honestly map out whether the credential you're earning here will move your income meaningfully, and compare that against community college options in Arizona that may offer similar training at a lower total cost. My honest advice — before applying, talk to recent graduates about where they're working and what they're earning, because the numbers suggest this school works best for students with a clear, specific career path and a realistic plan for how this program fits into it.
