About This School
The Professional Hair Design Academy is a private for-profit institution located in Eau Claire, Wisconsin with approximately 75 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $20,720 per year. Typical graduates earn $24,000 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $24,000 ten years out, which is a modest income, but the relatively low median debt of $6,650 means you won't be buried in loans — a real plus in a field where earnings have a ceiling. The $20,720 annual net price is still significant given those earning outcomes, so it's worth exhausting every scholarship and aid option before enrolling. Worth considering if you're set on cosmetology in the Eau Claire area and want a small, focused program, but go in with clear eyes about the income potential this career path typically offers.
