Financial Aid

Funding questions

Talk to admissions →
Does MH Beauty School offer federal financial aid (FAFSA / Title IV)?

Please ask admissions for the current status. Many smaller beauty schools do not participate in federal student aid programs — we will tell you honestly what is available.

Are there scholarships?

Ask about any institutional discounts or scholarships currently offered. Availability can change.

Can I start with a deposit and pay the rest later?

Yes — payment plans are designed for this. Details are confirmed during enrollment.

Can I complete hours while still paying?

Yes. You continue accumulating hours on our flexible schedule as long as you stay current on your payment plan.

What happens if I miss a payment?

Contact the school immediately. Staying in communication is important for continued enrollment.

Who should I talk to about money questions?

Call or visit admissions. We prefer to discuss your specific situation directly rather than give generic online answers.
