A Great Team
Eastern Arizona Academy of Cosmetology and Eastern Arizona College are working together to provide an affordable and top quality Cosmetology program. Our instructors, with over 29 years of salon experience, will work with many outside educators to thoroughly provide "the basics" to give a well rounded education in Cosmetology to each student.

Our program will prepare you for state certification in 10 ½ months of training and will earn you a 44 credit Certificate of Proficiency in Cosmetology from Eastern Arizona College. These 44 college credit hours can also be applied toward an Eastern Arizona College Associate of Applied Science Degree.

At the Academy, we have a firm belief in supplying our students with as much knowledge as possible. At least once a month we try to bring in an outside educator to demonstrate other skills and techniques for our students. Some of the educators that have come into our school in the past include, Redken, Paul Mitchell, Clairol, Fantastic Sams, Lisap, and Wella. We also host speakers who focus on the business aspects of the salon.

Is Cosmetology Right for Me?
This program will be intense training with some of the most updated and modern technology and teaching procedures. Before you decide if it is the right choice for you, we suggest you visit some salons and schools. We encourage you to talk to working stylists about their careers in the beauty industry. Once you have decided to pursue a career in the exciting field of Cosmetology, please contact us to enroll while space is still available.

How do I enroll?
Interested students must apply for acceptance into the program. Enrollment is handled through The Academy of Cosmetology. Classes start two times a year - in the months of August and January. Our classes fill up quickly, so contact us early to begin the enrollment process.

Scholarships
Because The Academy is affiliated with Eastern Arizona College, we honor any scholarships that a student might be receiving from E.A.C. Any student interested in applying for scholarships can do so by contacting their individual high school counselor or the scholarship office at E.A.C.
