Go Back to School?

Graduation students

If you’re like me, once you graduated (high school? college? middle school?) you said, “I’m never going back!” This ethos has solidified itself in the minds of many, especially in the years after expensive educations failed to pay off in the lives of so many. If this sounds like you, you may be loathe to ever enter the classroom again. And I don’t blame you. I made the same commitment myself. You may relate to me in that school never seemed built for you anyway. I always did really well at certain aspects of school, but not others. I aced my SATs but I was never more than a middling student in every other area. I think this is because the SAT seemed like a very concrete goal. It had time limits, clear parameters, I could focus my attention on it for a couple of hours, then walk away and never see it again. But school was day in and day out. The assignments were never ending, and I could never see the relationship between any one assignment and the life that I wanted to go on to live.

That’s where trade and vocational schools come in. Sure, you can make a lot of money if you have the aptitude for STEM disciplines: science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. But these fields are highly specialised. It requires a lifetime or preparation and natural talent. If this isn’t you, it isn’t you. There’s no getting around it. Other college options just don’t seem worth it. Liberal Arts? Literature? Are you kidding me? It may be a really rewarding experience to pay for 2-4+ years of these studies, but they are unlikely to pay off in the form of a real salary. That’s why trade school are beginning to grow in terms of relevance. 100 years ago, vocational schools and apprenticeships were one of the most important ways that people found jobs. But as the economy grew and the Industrial revolution ground to a close, the prestige and need for vocational jobs brought fewer people into the gates of the day’s trade schools.

But that all is changing. Schools like Marinello schools of beauty, a famous cosmetology school, are seeing thousands enter their more than 50 locations around the United States. Marinello Schools of Beauty are old school, but newly relevant. Established in the early 20th century, they were filling a need that is cropping up in more and more communities around the country: the need for accessible affordable education in a relevant field. Marinello School of beauty have thousands of alumni working around the world in many corners of the fashion and beauty industries. If this sounds like a good option for you, here is some more information about Marinello schools of beauty.

Marinello Schools of Beauty were first founded in 1905. They quickly grew to encompass many locations, as they provided a great service to their students. Today, they provide a high quality education with the fewest possible costs to their students. For one, they don’t provide housing, but there is almost surely a location that is close by. Because the schools are in six states: California, Connecticut, Kansas, Massachusetts, Nevada and Utah, you can be sure that there’s one close enough to get to and still get back home or to work by the end of the day. Marinello Schools of Beauty are also really good at hooking students up with jobs following graduation. It’s for this reason that so many people working in the beauty industry around the world are graduates of Marinello beauty schools. If you add yourself to their ranks, this and more can be yours, all for an affordable price.
