Louisville Beauty Academy is on the mission to solve the beauty student debt crisis by providing debt-free opportunities to its cosmetology students. Cosmetology is the longest program in the beauty field that requires 1500 hours (10 months for full-time students) when there are Esthetic requires 750 hours (5 months for a full-time student) and Nail Technology requires 450 hours (3 months for a full-time student).

Throughout the state of Kentucky, there are hundreds of stories about KY licensed cosmetologists and cosmetology graduates who are in debts of $15,000 and more. Worse than that, many struggles to pay off the loan even after 10 years in the fields. This story is very common. If you meet any cosmetologists, ask about their student loans today.

How can Louisville Beauty Academy provide debt-free study programs to its student?

1. The foundation is cost: Louisville Beauty Academy provides the most affordable cosmetology program in Kentucky and also cost matching availability. The cosmetology program is only under $8000 at Louisville Beauty Academy, while it cost up to $22,000 at some other school in KY.
2. The level 2 support: Louisville Beauty Academy provide a payment plan with zero interest directly to the students on a super flexible term (pay any amount beyond minimum requirement and pay off one time in the end.
3. Level 3 support: Louisville Beauty Academy supports employment to every single graduate. School leader such as Louisville Beauty Academy CEO, Di Tran actively makes the partnership with potential employers who can hire school graduates as soon as they complete the program. Of course, no guarantee of employment but the school puts every effort it can to make this happen upon request.
4. Level 4 support: Louisville Beauty Academy makes itself available to provide financial management to its graduate upon request this would increase the debt-free opportunity for school graduates.

According to Ramirez-Castro and Valenzuela, the majority of high schools students are not being informed about career opportunities in Skilled Trade such as construction or beauty. Beauty services fulfill the basic needs of hair, nail, and skincare. Construction fulfills the basic needs of living and working space and facilities. Anything that is related to the basic needs of humanity is an ON-GOING BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, that can more often than not generate or cultivate new small business owners.

On November 19, 2021, Louisville Beauty Academy and Shelby County Public School in Kentucky are collaborating and taking a step closer together to address this skilled workforce gap, by exposing Shelby County Public School high school students to beauty industry trade, and skills.

20 years later: Louisville executives look back on 9/11

I was at University of Louisville Speed school for my first semester as an undergrad for computer engineering and computer science degree. I was with a group of friend trying to get an early brunch/lunch at the engineer cafeteria (today Miller IT Center.)

I was one of many, if not all, students in the Speed school cafeteria gathered around the TV with Breaking News reading “America (or United States) is under attack.” The news was playing the first tower of the World Trade Center on fire, and then another plane going through the second one.

At that moment, I didn’t know what to think but simply having a feeling like the world will fall — more like we are being invaded by aliens from outer space movies that we watched. The real fear of not knowing what to do or where to go, because I immigrated from Vietnam where wars destroy our country. I always believed and still do that the USA is the gold standard and the number one country on earth. So at that moment of the 9/11 attack, I felt lost and wondering where else to go from here.
