About This School
Cutting Edge Barber Academy is a private for-profit institution located in Lancaster, Pennsylvania with approximately 28 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $20,968 per year.
Worth considering if you're serious about a barbering career and want a hands-on, small-cohort experience — with only 28 students enrolled, you'll likely get close instructor attention that larger cosmetology schools can't match. However, the $20,968 average annual net price is steep for a vocational certificate program, so before enrolling, press the school hard for graduate employment rates and starting salaries to make sure the earnings justify that cost. If those numbers check out, the intimate program size is a genuine advantage; if the school can't provide them, that's a red flag worth taking seriously.
