About This School
Paul Mitchell the School-Nampa is a private for-profit institution located in Nampa, Idaho with approximately 117 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $21,961 per year. The graduation rate is 65%, and the typical graduate earns $19,200 within 10 years of enrollment.
This school is best suited for students who are passionate about a cosmetology career and want to start working quickly, but families should go in with clear eyes about the financial picture. The debt load at graduation is relatively modest at $10,555, which is genuinely good news — but median earnings of $19,200 a decade after enrollment is a real concern, since that's below a living wage in most parts of Idaho and makes even that smaller debt harder to manage comfortably. The 65% graduation rate means roughly one in three students who start don't finish, so it's worth asking honestly what's driving that and whether you have the schedule flexibility and support to see it through. Before committing to the $21,961 annual net price, I'd strongly encourage your student to talk to recent graduates working locally about what their first few years actually looked like financially. This can be a reasonable path for someone with a clear plan and low borrowing needs, but it's not a decision to make without running the numbers against your specific situation.
