About This School
Venus Beauty Academy is a private for-profit institution located in Aston, Pennsylvania with approximately 56 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $16,491 per year. Typical graduates earn $21,700 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $21,700 a year a decade out, which is modest but somewhat expected for the cosmetology field, and the relatively low median debt of $5,500 at graduation means students aren't buried in loans. The bigger concern is the $18,536 annual net price — when you stack that against likely earnings, the return on investment is tight, so this makes the most sense for someone with a clear passion for beauty work who plans to build a local clientele or eventually open their own business. It's a small, focused program worth considering if you've already ruled out lower-cost alternatives like community college cosmetology programs in the area.
