About this school

Elizabeth Grady School of Esthetics and Massage Therapy is a private for-profit trade school located in Medford, Massachusetts, a large suburb. Federal financial aid such as FAFSA or Pell Grants cannot be used at this campus, since the school's title IV status is listed as No. No accreditor is listed in the federal DAPIP database for this campus, so accreditation status is not reported for this campus in federal data. The school's most common programs are esthetician training, with 173 completers, and massage therapy, with 26 completers, for a total of 199 trade completers across its two program families.

Federal outcome and cost data for this campus is limited. The state average completion rate for similar programs in Massachusetts is 59.7%, but this campus's own completion rate compared to that average is not reported for this campus in federal data. Median debt of graduates, 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 school may suit students interested in short, hands-on training in esthetics or massage therapy rather than a multi-year associate degree, though program lengths themselves are not stated in the available data, so that fit should be confirmed directly with the school. Because federal aid does not apply here, cost and payment arrangements should be discussed directly with the school. Prospective students can verify accreditation status and any updated federal outcome data through the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard, and should contact the school directly using the phone number or website on file for current program details.
