About this school
Barber & Beauty Institute of New York is a private for-profit trade school located in Hempstead, NY, a large suburb. It is accredited by the National Accrediting Commission of Career Arts and Sciences, and federal financial aid, including FAFSA and Pell Grants, can be used here (Title IV eligible). The campus focuses on a single program family, barber schools, with its listed top program being barber schools (47 completers).
According to federal data, the completion rate at this campus is 76.9%, which is above the state average of 64.0%. Median debt among graduates is $4,223, and the annual cost of attendance is $19,079. All students reported (100.0%) receive Pell Grants, indicating a largely low-income student population. Median earnings 10 years after entry are not reported for this campus in federal data.
This campus, with an undergraduate enrollment of just 16 students, appears suited to students seeking a focused, single-trade program in barbering rather than a broad multi-program associate degree environment. Given the very small enrollment and full Pell participation, it may particularly serve students needing significant financial aid support, though career-changer fit specifically cannot be confirmed beyond what's stated. Prospective students should verify current accreditation status directly with the National Accrediting Commission of Career Arts and Sciences and review the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard for the most current federal outcome data before enrolling.
