About this school

College of Barber & Hair Design is a trade school located in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges, though its accreditation status field simply reads "Accredited" without further detail. According to the listing data, this campus does not participate in Title IV federal financial aid, meaning students cannot use FAFSA or Pell Grants to pay for programs here. The school's program families are cosmetology and barbering, which align with its name and suggest training toward barber and hair design careers.

Specific outcome and cost figures are not reported for this campus in federal data. Completion rate, state average completion, median graduate debt, median earnings ten years after entry, annual cost of attendance, and the share of students receiving Pell Grants are all not reported for this campus in federal data. This is common for schools that do not participate in Title IV aid programs, since much of the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard reporting is tied to federal aid participation.

Because detailed program lengths and schedule information are not included in the data provided, it is not possible to say from this listing alone whether the programs suit short-term retraining or a longer course of study, or whether they are structured for adult career changers. Prospective students should contact the school directly at (501) 376-9696 to ask about program length, cost, and whether alternative payment options exist.
