I graduated from Capri almost 2 years from the cosmetology program and Capri definitely set me up for success with all the knowledge my instructors had and passed down to me! If you are interested in going to cosmetology school I highly recommend Capri College in Waterloo

I attended Capri last year and graduated through the cosmetology program and my college experience was great! All the instructors there are very kind and helpful while still letting you have full range of your creativity! S.O to my instructor Surp for pushing me to finish my hours!

Choosing Capri College was one of the best decisions I've ever made. From day one, I felt supported and encouraged to grow-not just as a stylist, but as a person. The instructors pushed me to believe in myself, refine my skills, and step outside of my comfort zone. I graduated feeling confident, prepared, and excited to start my career. Capri will always hold a special place in my heart.

Capri College has given me confidence in my ability that I will own forever. My favorite part of the program was the hands-on learning. The fast-paced nature of the program was challenging, but it has prepared me for my career as a Massage Therapist.

Frequently Asked Questions About Capri College in Davenport

What are class sizes like at your school?

We purposely keep our class sizes small at Capri College, so students can receive a more personalized education with plenty of interaction with the instructors.

How is your school different from a traditional four-year college?

Students who take our programs can finish their education much faster than students in traditional colleges. For instance, cosmetology is our longest program, and students can complete it in as little as 52 weeks.

Also, we believe that beauty school students learn best through hands-on experience. We do have a classroom component to our education, but many of the hours are spent practicing skills in the student salon and spa under the direct supervision of licensed instructors.

We prepare students to be career-ready after graduation. Although we can’t guarantee employment, we do teach students business skills and then help them find placement through our strong connections with local salons and spas.

Is financial aid available?

Financial aid is available to those who qualify. Start the financial aid process by filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®). Once that is processed, we can talk to you about your financing options. Call us at  1-800-728-7222 to talk with a Financial Aid advisor.

What are the admissions requirements at Capri College?

To enroll in our beauty school, you must have a high school diploma or GED and a valid driver’s license or government-issued ID. You must submit a completed application form, pay the required $100 admissions fee, and schedule a tour of our campus.

Being an esthetician is about so much more than skincare. It’s about building confidence, helping others see their beauty, and reminding them just how amazing they are. 🤍✨
