About This School

BJ's Beauty & Barber College is a private for-profit institution located in Tacoma, Washington with approximately 26 undergraduate students enrolled. Typical graduates earn $25,100 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $25,100 ten years out, which is a modest income, but the relatively low median debt of $6,333 means you won't be buried in loans while building your career. With only 26 students enrolled, you'll likely get hands-on, personalized instruction rather than getting lost in a crowd — which matters a lot in a skills-based trade program. Worth considering if you're set on a cosmetology or barbering career in the Tacoma area and want to keep borrowing low, but go in with clear eyes about the earning ceiling this field typically offers.
