About This School
Townsend Barber Institute is a private for-profit institution located in Roseville, Minnesota with approximately 32 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $27,667 per year.
Students drawn specifically to barbering and cosmetology trades — and who want a small, focused environment — should take a close look at this one, but go in with eyes open. With only 32 enrolled students, you'll get an intimate, hands-on training experience that larger beauty schools simply can't replicate. That said, the average net price of $27,667 per year is steep for a vocational program, and you'll want to carefully weigh that cost against realistic starting salaries in the barber trade, which typically range from $28,000–$40,000 annually in Minnesota — meaning debt payoff could be a slow climb. Before committing, ask the school directly for their graduation rate and job placement numbers, since those figures weren't readily available and are essential for making a sound decision. If they can show strong placement data and help you piece together grants or employer partnerships to reduce that net price, this could be a solid fit — but if they can't answer those questions clearly, that itself tells you something worth hearing.
