​

Please note Studio Beauty School's code, you will need this to complete your application for federal funding. 

​

Studio Beauty School is nationally accredited and federally funded. You will need to use the FAFSA form to apply for financial aid, and qualifying students will be able to use assistance to attend Studio Beauty School!


A copy of your previous year's taxes will be requested as proof of income from the student, and often times, from the parents as well. Students may apply online today using FAFSA website. We also have forms available here at the school to apply if you would rather fill out the form and send it snail mail. 

​

Here's Five FAFSA hints and tips Studio Beauty School would like to share to help avoid possible delays. 


Tip 1:  Apply

Go to www.fafsa.gov (.gov is the FREE version!). The idea that you will not receive aid is one of the biggest hold ups in receiving Federal Financial Aid. Most applicants qualify for some form of aid regardless of income and unless you apply, the Federal Government won't be able to inform you of your options.


Tip 2:  Sign your FAFSA

Your FAFSA isn't complete until your FAFSA is signed. If you are a dependent your parent or guardian must also sign your FAFSA.

​

Tip 3: Use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool 

This option is available on the online version found at www.fafsa.gov to enter your IRS information for you. By choosing to use this feature you can eliminate any discrepancies between your IRS tax form and the amount entered on your FAFSA. This will speed up the review process and avoid any delays related to income.


Tip 4: Review your entries for spelling or input errors. 

For instance, make sure your name and number match what's on your most current social security card. If not, this could delay your FAFSA funding.


Tip 5: Call the Department of Education

As soon as you learn there's an issue with your FAFSA and the solution isn't obvious then call the Department of Education using the number provided you in your FAFSA letter and they will help you - REALLY!

Do you offer salon services to the public?

Of course! 

​

We LOVE having the community come and enjoy our salon. Not only are our students very talented? But our salon is state of the art, and we offer our services at a very, very reasonable price! 

Please call ahead to check availability, however. Salon hours vary based on our course curriculums and student testing schedules. We feel very strongly about making sure our students have learned minimum hours of study prior to working on clientele. We do accept Walk-ins, however, we would love a courtesy call ahead so we can put you on the student's schedule and ensure they are prepared. All services are performed by students under the tutelage of our talented instructor staff. 

​

​

Senate Bill 5166 Studio Beauty School will provide reasonable religious accommodations to students who have religious practices or beliefs that conflict with a scheduled course/program requirement. Students requesting a religious accommodation should make the request, in writing, directly to their instructor within the first two weeks of the beginning of the course and provide specific dates the student requests an accommodation.  Being absent from class or other educational responsibilities does not excuse students from keeping up with any information shared or expectations set during the missed class. Students are responsible for obtaining the materials and information provided during any class missed. The student shall work with the instructor to determine a schedule for making up missed work.

Examples of religious accommodations may include:

  • rescheduling of an exam or giving a make-up exam for the student;

  • altering the time of a student's presentation;

  • allowing extra-credit assignments to substitute for missed class work or arranging for increased flexibility in assignment due dates;

  • releasing an instructor trainee from teaching or research responsibilities on a given day
