About This School

University of Spa & Cosmetology Arts is a private for-profit institution located in Springfield, Illinois with approximately 165 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $17,951 per year. Typical graduates earn $22,800 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: debt at graduation is impressively low ($4,124), which limits your financial risk, but median earnings of $22,800 a decade out means graduates are earning well below a living wage in most parts of the country. Worth considering if you're set on a cosmetology or spa career and want to minimize borrowing, but go in clear-eyed that this field has a real earnings ceiling — and make sure to ask the school directly about its graduation and job placement rates before committing.
