About this school
Hoss Lee Academy is a private for-profit trade school in Roseville, California, accredited by the National Accrediting Commission of Career Arts and Sciences. Federal financial aid, including FAFSA and Pell Grants, can be used at this campus. The school's two program families are esthetician training and cosmetology, with top programs being Esthetician schools (69 completers) and Cosmetology schools (61 completers).
The campus reports a completion rate of 92.2%, which is above the California state average of 64.2%. Median debt for graduates is $6,333, a figure notably lower than many trade programs. Median earnings 10 years after entry are not reported for this campus in federal data. The annual cost of attendance is $30,622, and 20.2% of students receive Pell Grants, indicating a modest share of low-income enrollment relative to some other trade schools.
This campus may suit students interested in short, focused beauty-industry training programs such as esthetics or cosmetology, rather than multi-year associate degrees. The relatively high completion rate and manageable graduate debt load suggest a structured program environment, though adult career-changer fit cannot be confirmed beyond what is stated about program offerings. Prospective students should verify current accreditation status directly with NACCAS and review the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard for the most up-to-date federal outcome data before enrolling.
