The average net price after financial aid is $17,230 per year. The graduation rate is 84%, and the typical graduate earns $20,300 within 10 years of enrollment.
Students who are passionate about a cosmetology career and want to get licensed and working quickly — without taking on mountains of debt — will find this school worth a close look. The graduation rate of 84% is genuinely strong for a vocational program, which tells you that most students who start here actually finish, and the median debt at graduation is a very manageable $5,858. That said, the earnings picture deserves an honest conversation: the median income 10 years after enrollment is $20,300, which is modest and reflects the real-world ceiling of many entry-level cosmetology roles rather than any failure of the program itself. The net price of $17,230 per year means you'll want to carefully calculate total program cost against realistic local salon wages before signing anything. My advice: visit the school, talk to recent graduates working in the Goose Creek area, and ask directly about job placement support — this can be a smart, low-debt path to licensure, but going in with clear financial expectations will make all the difference.
