What we see in the data
At Paul Mitchell the School-St. George, net price is what families actually pay after grants and scholarships. For families in the $0–$30,000 income band, that was about $15K per year, lower than the median among for-profit colleges in Utah ($19K), and about the same as the median among colleges nationwide ($15K).
Finish on time means completing within the normal time frame for the degree (for example, one and a half years for a one-year certificate). About 72% of students finished on time, higher than the median among for-profit colleges in Utah (50%), and higher than the median among colleges nationwide (58%).
Federal student loans are in the student's name, separate from parent loans. Graduates who borrowed had a median of about $7K in federal loan debt at graduation, lower than the median among for-profit colleges in Utah ($8K), and lower than the median among colleges nationwide ($10K). Ten years after starting, typical pay was about $38K; median federal debt was about 19% of that pay (College Scorecard affordability signal — not ED's program score).
About 38% of students at Paul Mitchell the School-St. George received federal Pell grants (a common proxy for lower family income). Pell students finished on time at a lower rate (67%) than the school-wide average (72%) — see Who attends below.
Pathways & Outcomes compares each school to Utah and national pathway medians using federal and state data. Numbers are school-wide averages — not every major or program. Small graduating classes may be hidden for privacy. Apprenticeships and some trade programs are not included.
