About This School
Casal Aveda Institute is a private for-profit institution located in Niles, Ohio with approximately 102 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $14,958 per year. Typical graduates earn $19,300 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: with median earnings of just $19,300 a decade after enrollment, graduates are earning well below the national average for cosmetology careers, which raises real questions about return on investment even though the debt load at graduation is relatively low at $5,206. The small enrollment of 93 students likely means personalized attention and a hands-on learning environment, which can be a genuine advantage in a skills-based field. Worth considering only if you've researched local job market demand in the Niles, OH area and have a clear plan for building income beyond entry-level work after graduating.
