About This School

Designer Barber & Stylist School is a private for-profit institution located in Fort Smith, Arkansas with approximately 95 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $18,137 per year.

Worth considering if you want a focused, trade-specific program in Fort Smith — with a median debt at graduation of just $10,203, graduates aren't saddled with the kind of loan burden that plagues many for-profit schools. That said, the $16,010 annual net price is steep for a cosmetology credential, so you'll want to confirm that local barber and stylist wages in the area justify the cost before enrolling. With only 91 students, you'll get a small-school experience, but ask hard questions about job placement rates and graduate earnings — that data matters more here than anything in the brochure.
