About This School
Aveda Institute Portland-Vancouver Campus is a private for-profit institution located in Vancouver, Washington with approximately 122 undergraduate students enrolled. The graduation rate is 86%, and the typical graduate earns $33,003 within 10 years of enrollment.
This school is a strong fit for students who are serious about a career in cosmetology or esthetics and want a focused, credential-driven program rather than a traditional college experience. The 86% graduation rate is genuinely impressive for a vocational institution — it suggests students who enroll tend to finish, which matters a lot when you're paying for a program. The median debt at graduation is a reasonable $6,826, which is low enough that a graduate can manage repayment without much financial stress. The honest concern is earnings potential: the median income 10 years out is $33,003, which reflects the real ceiling of most salon and spa careers, so students should go in clear-eyed about income expectations and think carefully about whether they plan to eventually own a business or specialize in ways that can increase earning power. If your student is passionate about the beauty industry and wants to get in, get trained, and get working without taking on significant debt, this is a pragmatic choice — just make sure the career math works for your family's situation before signing.
