About This School

La James International College-Johnston is a private for-profit institution located in Johnston, Iowa with approximately 113 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $17,456 per year. Typical graduates earn $28,000 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $28,000 ten years out, which is modest but somewhat offset by the relatively low median debt of $7,917 at graduation. Worth considering if you're set on a cosmetology or beauty career and want to keep borrowing low, since the debt load is manageable compared to many for-profit schools. That said, the small enrollment of 113 students and the $17,456 annual net price deserve a close look — make sure financial aid is locked in writing before you commit.
