Admissions and Financial Aid
Don’t let the fear of a fragile economy or your own financial situation keep you from pursuing your goals. A cosmetology education is more affordable than you may realize and there are so many financial aid options available to just about everyone. Many grants and loans for those who qualify don’t need to be repaid after graduation or offer alternative financial repayment plans. The following are just a few of the packages we offer, and our friendly financial aid advisors are more than happy to help you through the process, explain the different available packages and help you find the one that’s best for you. Admissions to a Minneapolis beauty school is easy with the help of our experienced staff.
- Federal Pell Grant
- Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)
- Federal Stafford Loan (FSL)
- Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (FPLUS)
- School Scholarships
- The ACE Grant
- Private Loans
- Sallie Mae
- School Direct Loans
Because Empire Beauty Schools are so highly accredited, we are also able to provide Title IV funding which is a federal grant that doesn’t have to be paid back. Low-cost loans are also available and accumulate little to no interest while you’re enrolled in school.
