Other Ways to Pay for Beauty School

Veterans and Third-Party Funding Programs

Moler Barber College is approved by the state approving agency to enroll students who are eligible to receive Veterans educational benefits. The College also accepts funding from additional third-party sponsors, such as California Vocational Rehabilitation (Voc Rehab), Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) programs, and other workforce or community agencies that support vocational training.

Students using VA, Voc Rehab, WIOA, or other third-party funding may contact the Financial Aid Office for help with documentation, certification, and program eligibility requirements. Students receiving assistance through these programs are also subject to the refund or return-of-funds policies established by the sponsoring agency.

Information regarding these policies is available from the Financial Aid Office or directly from the agency upon request.

Payment Plans

Payment plans may be available to eligible students who wish to divide tuition payments over the course of the program. All payment arrangements must be approved by the College and may require an initial payment at enrollment. The College may use a third-party payment servicing provider to administer approved payment plans, including billing and payment processing. Terms and conditions are provided to students at the time a payment plan is arranged.

Scholarships

Scholarships may be another way to help pay for beauty school. Scholarship opportunities can vary based on availability, eligibility requirements, deadlines, and the organization offering the award.

Students are encouraged to ask Moler’s Financial Aid team about scholarship resources and outside opportunities that may be available. Our team can help you understand what to look for, how scholarship funding may work, and how outside awards may apply to your total program cost.

Examples of outside scholarship resources may include:

Beauty Changes Lives
Beauty Changes Lives offers scholarship opportunities for future and current beauty professionals, with opportunities that may vary by program type, season, sponsor, and eligibility requirements.

Joe Francis Haircare Scholarship Foundation
The Joe Francis Haircare Scholarship Foundation offers scholarship opportunities for students applying to or enrolled in cosmetology or barbering programs. According to the foundation, esthetician and nail training students are not eligible.
