Why a Career in Cosmetology Might Be Right for You! September 28, 2022

It seems the traditional education route after high school is college, you graduate and are immediately bombarded with questions about what school you plan to attend, where you’re going to go, and what you want your career and the next 30 years to look like. But a traditional 4-year university isn’t right for everyone! In fact, a study done by the New York Federal Reserve Bank showed that only 27% of graduates actually use their degrees. A 4-year university can be incredibly expensive and time-consuming, if you’re not sure you’re even going to use the degree you’re paying for, it might not be worth it to attend a traditional college.

Luckily, more and more people are realizing the benefits of attending a trade school versus a traditional college education. You can learn the skills needed to do a specific trade that you already know you’re going to love and trade schools typically aren’t as expensive and don’t take as long to complete.
