This is not a sweepstakes or drawing. All participating students meeting the above guidelines and rules will be awarded the scholarship (see "award of scholarship" below). The Aveda Institute does not discriminate in admissions or access to our programs on the basis of age, race, color, sex, disability, religion, sexual orientation, financial status, veteran status or national origin. Application must be completed before first day of class. Scholarship funds will be disbursed upon completion of the program. Scholarship funds are only awarded if the student starts in July or August 2026.
Award of Scholarship: Each an eligible student (based upon the guidelines and rules above), will receive a scholarship (only in the amount described above) which will be in the form of a credit toward tuition upon completion of the student’s program and graduation. For students with Title IV or Institute loans, the monies will reduce the student’s outstanding balance. For students who have paid their tuition in cash, the monies will reduce future tuition balance owed, and to the extent nothing further is owed, the remaining balance of monies shall be paid to the student. Total value of the scholarship for a student depends the student’s program and the institute from which the student graduates. Scholarship is nontransferable.
