About This School
Career Academy of Hair Design is a private for-profit institution located in Springdale, Arkansas with approximately 245 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $12,728 per year. Typical graduates earn $23,600 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $23,600 ten years out, which is modest but not surprising for the cosmetology field, and the relatively low median debt of $5,531 at graduation means you won't be buried in loans. Worth considering if you're serious about a career in hair design and want a small, focused program — but go in clear-eyed that this path leads to a trade income, not a high-earning profession, and make sure you've compared local salon apprenticeship options before committing to the $13,563 annual net price.
