FAQs about Financial Aid

Do I qualify for financial aid?

The best way to determine whether you are eligible for financial aid is to fill out the FAFSA. This will give you a start on your financial plan and help you explore all your options. It also gives our financial aid team a starting place for helping you determine your options. You can fill out the FAFSA online for free, and there is no obligation involved.

Does financial aid cover the cost of my books and kit?

Yes! Financial aid can cover books, kits, and other educational expenses. Our team will help you understand how your funds are allocated. If your federal aid doesn’t cover the cost of your kit, there may be private loans, grants, or scholarships that can help.

What if federal aid doesn't cover the cost of my tuition?

In most cases, federal aid won’t cover the entire cost of your tuition. This is normal! Most students use a combination of federal aid, scholarships, and private loans to cover the cost of their training. Our advisors can help you explore all the options. We know that the cost of your training can be a concern, but you are worth it!

See What Our Students Have To Say

I had a facial and back treatment with Bailey and it was the best experience. Bailey made me feel so comfortable and asked questions about my skin and made suggestions to help my skincare routine. Also, her hands!!! I didn’t realize my jaw and cheekbones could even be sore until she did the facial massage. The only downside was when she gently tapped my shoulder to let me know our time was up. I will be back!!!

Samantha Popchock

I love this place. Since I have been lucky enough to hear about it I come weekly. I get a shampoo and blow out every week and I try to fit in as many facials as I can . Lynn is the receptionist and I love her. She always tries to get me in on my schedule. I have had many a stylist do my hair always to my liking. The teachers are great and always ready to help a student who has a question. Thank you Duval’s you have made my retirement just so much better!

Patty Beyer

The mood is positive and everyone has a supportive attitude. The culture at DuVall’s is one that encourages students to have fun, but also be responsible. The staff is excellent. I always feel like there is someone there to give me advice or feedback when I need it.
