About This School
Institute of Beauty Careers is a private for-profit institution located in Arecibo, PR with approximately 132 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $5,162 per year. Typical graduates earn $15,200 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $5,162 per year after aid, the cost is genuinely accessible, making it one of the more affordable paths into the beauty industry. However, the median earnings of $15,200 a decade after enrollment are a real concern — that's a tight income to repay any debt or cover living expenses, even with low tuition. This is worth considering only if you're committed to building a local client base in Puerto Rico and have a clear plan to grow your income beyond entry-level wages.
