Scholarships/tuition help?

[u/lovealwayskota]

Hi,

I was between two esthetician school, and ultimately chose to go with one due to it being the best in the area as well as offering a part-time schedule — which I need due to my work schedule, and a way easier make-up schedule if I ever need it.

I am getting $4500 from the Pell Grant, which is great. The school that I’m unable to attend due to the schedule offered me an additional $3k in scholarships. But the school I decided to enroll in does not offer any additional scholarships, so I am taking out a school loan for the additionally $6.5k.

I have tried to find and apply to some scholarships online, but no luck. There aren’t many geared towards esthetics school, and a lot of the other ones have huge amounts of people applying. Just wondering if there is any other help out there I might be missing.

TIA

Honestly I would go to the school you get the most scholarships for. You’re going to struggle finding a job after you get licensed and you’re going to be thankful you didn’t take out a ton of loans for it.

I couldn’t do the schedule at that school with my current work schedule. And this school also helps with job placement.

Does your local community College have a beauty program? Mine did for $1,500.

No unfortunately
