Champneys offering tuition loans for students at its beauty industry college

Students hoping to enroll for beauty therapy courses at Tring, England-based Champneys International College are now able to use an Advanced Learner loan to pay for tuition.

The loan is not means-tested, so is open to everyone, and is not paid back until graduates earn more than £21,000. If income falls below £21,000 through unemployment or a career break, payments are paused and begin again when income goes up.

“This is a very exciting time for Champneys and the College; we will now be able to offer our highly regarded training to everyone,” said Rachel Halling, College principal. “We’re looking for motivated students with the drive to succeed in the beauty industry.

“All graduates are guaranteed employment at any of the Champneys resorts or city spas, which makes a huge difference to those making decisions on their future,” she continued.

The College offers beauty training at levels 2, 3 and 4 and a diploma in beauty and spa therapy; students can graduate in one year if they attend full-time, five days a week, or in 18 months if they attend part-time, three days per week.
