About This School
SOHO Hair Academy is a private for-profit institution located in Council Bluffs, Iowa with approximately 50 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $11,765 per year. Typical graduates earn $20,300 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $20,300 ten years out, which is a modest income, but the relatively low median debt of $8,550 and $11,765 average net price mean you won't be buried in loans to get there. This is worth considering if you're set on cosmetology and want a small, hands-on environment in the Council Bluffs area — the tiny 50-student enrollment means personal attention is likely. Just go in clear-eyed that earnings in this field run lean, so building a client base or eventually owning a salon matters more than the credential alone.
