About This School

Aveda Institute-Des Moines is a private for-profit institution located in West Des Moines, Iowa with approximately 179 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $15,155 per year.

Worth considering if you're committed to a cosmetology or esthetics career in the Aveda brand ecosystem — the intimate enrollment of just 179 students means you'll likely get hands-on attention rather than getting lost in a crowd. The median debt at graduation is a reasonable $6,333, which is relatively manageable for a vocational program, and the $15,155 average net price suggests aid is doing some work. That said, as a for-profit school, do your homework on job placement rates and licensure exam pass rates before enrolling, since those numbers matter far more than tuition sticker price for your actual return on investment.
