About This School

Rudae's School of Beauty Culture-Ft Wayne is a private for-profit institution located in Fort Wayne, Indiana with approximately 121 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $24,920 per year. Typical graduates earn $19,400 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: while median debt at graduation is a manageable $9,500, graduates are earning just $19,400 a decade after enrollment, which leaves very little financial cushion. This small, focused cosmetology school in Fort Wayne may work for you if you're determined to build a local client base and treat the credential as a stepping stone, but the $24,920 annual net price is hard to justify given those long-term earnings. Go in with a clear business plan — counting solely on a salaried position in this field will make repayment tight.
