About This School
Award Beauty School is a private for-profit institution located in Hagerstown, Maryland with approximately 132 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $20,744 per year. Typical graduates earn $19,800 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers here tell a cautionary story: graduates earn a median of $19,800 ten years out, which makes the $20,744 average annual net price a steep ask, even if the $7,500 median debt at graduation is relatively modest. Worth considering if you're committed to the cosmetology field and have local job prospects lined up in the Hagerstown area, since keeping costs down and graduating quickly matters a lot when earning potential has a low ceiling. Go in with clear eyes — this credential can open doors, but financial margin for error is tight at this salary level.
