About This School

Tricoci University of Beauty Culture-Chicago NE is a private for-profit institution located in Chicago, Illinois with approximately 160 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $19,279 per year. The graduation rate is 43%, and the typical graduate earns $27,330 within 10 years of enrollment.

Students who are passionate about a career in beauty and cosmetology and want to get into the workforce quickly — rather than pursue a traditional four-year degree — are the most natural fit here. The relatively low median debt at graduation ($7,307) is genuinely encouraging, meaning students who complete the program aren't buried in loans the way many for-profit school graduates are. That said, the 43% graduation rate is a real concern — fewer than half of students who start actually finish, which is worth taking seriously before enrolling. Median earnings of $27,330 a decade out also reflect the reality of the cosmetology field: this is a passion-driven path, not a high-income one, so students should think honestly about their financial goals and whether building a client base or eventually owning a salon is part of their long-term plan. Before committing, I'd strongly encourage visiting the school, talking to recent graduates about their job placement experience, and asking hard questions about what support is available to help students actually get to graduation.
