CAC is currently enrolling Cosmetology students.
In support of our mission to deliver excellent, yet affordable programs within the Beauty School Industry, not only is our tuition cost thousands of dollars lower than most other area Cosmetology schools, but new scholarship and government assistance now allows for further financial support: For example:
1. Apply for an LS Program ( a no interest payment/payments program) and receive a $500-2000 scholarship)...or
2. Enter an affordable monthly payment program. Depending on the program selected, monthly payments are in the low to mid $300s plus only a 6% interest.
3. With the assistance of the Defense Department and our own CAC Scholarships, military spouses pay only $2-3,000 ( based on the program selected ).
At CAC, we give our students an affordable, personal, and excellent education to prepare them to become licensed, successful Cosmetologists! Speak with our excellent, student-centered Admission's Staff to find the right Tuition Program for you!
