About This School
First Coast Barber Academy is a private for-profit institution located in Jacksonville, Florida with approximately 82 undergraduate students enrolled. First Coast Barber Academy has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 90%. The average net price after financial aid is $15,976 per year.
Worth considering if you want a focused, hands-on barbering program — the median debt at graduation is a manageable $9,000, which is relatively low for a vocational credential. However, the net price of $15,749 per year is steep for a single-skill trade program, so you'll want to confirm that local barber salaries in Jacksonville can realistically support repayment before enrolling. The small 50-student enrollment means personalized attention, but also limited peer networks and resources compared to larger cosmetology schools.
