About This School

Hair Professionals Career College is a private for-profit institution located in Palos Hills, Illinois with approximately 86 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $15,405 per year. Typical graduates earn $26,200 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $26,200 ten years out, which is modest but manageable given the relatively low median debt of $7,917 at graduation. The small enrollment of 80 students suggests a hands-on, focused learning environment, which can be a real advantage in a skills-based trade. Worth considering if you're committed to a cosmetology career and want to minimize debt, but go in clear-eyed that the earnings ceiling in this field is real.
