Get Access To Affordable Housing!

Not every beauty school offers this, but with our partnerships with Fort Hays State University, students can choose to live in their dorms so you can go to beauty school and cut down on transportation. This is an amazing opportunity to further your education in what interests you most! Not many beauty schools offer this.

That’s not all we have to offer. Learn more about our collaboration with Fort Hays State University.

    After graduating high school I was looking for an amazing school where I could start my career. I toured at Hays Academy and it was the perfect fit for me. After starting they soon became family and I created amazing relationships with fellow students. Hays Academy provided a great learning environment to create a foundation in skills that I will carry with me to the salon. In the past year my life has changed for the best and it is because of my experience at Hays Academy.
