I went to the Aveda Institute in New York and sadly my experience learning there wasn't the greatest! They have so many rules to keep everything and everyone in line. You are not allowed to miss more then 37 hours in your 4 month program. If you exceed your pool of hours you will be kicked out of the school and won't get your money back. 37 hours is like 4 and a half days which isn't very much. What if you get really sick or have some other responsibilities where you have to miss more time. They also kick you out if you go under 80% in your weekly test scores if it happens too often. I somewhat understand that you have to push students to do their best but this just seems like a lot of pressure. I do like the skills they have taught me and the location is nice. Other then that many attitudes,not the greatest vibes in the classroom and not the most helpful learning practices. I'm satisfied with what I learned but I definitely wouldn't repeat!
