Northwest College-Tualatin is a specialized cosmetology training school located in Tualatin, Oregon, a suburb southwest of Portland. The program trains students for careers as cosmetologists through focused, practical instruction in a small learning environment with 28 total students enrolled.

Annual tuition is $17,300, with a total cost of attendance of $22,488 when books and supplies are included. The school's condensed format and specific vocational focus mean students move quickly toward licensure eligibility without the broader general education requirements of a traditional college.

This school is right for students seeking direct entry into the beauty and personal care industry. Before enrolling, ask about Oregon state licensing exam pass rates, job placement outcomes, the exact length of the program in hours or weeks, and whether the school helps students understand employer expectations in local salons.
