Ascend Ambassador Full Ride Scholarship

Ascend Beauty College is proud to award three Full Ride Ambassador Scholarships to future beauty professionals who demonstrate leadership, discipline, and a commitment to excellence.

This opportunity is more than free tuition — it is a professional development experience designed to shape industry leaders.

Scholarship Awards

  • Manicurist Program – Valued at $8,500
  • Esthetician Program – Valued at $10,500
  • Instructor Program – Valued at $7,500

These scholarships represent a significant institutional investment. Recipients are expected to demonstrate responsibility, professionalism, and strong work ethic throughout their enrollment.

What Is an Ambassador Scholar?

Ambassador Scholars serve as student leaders within Ascend Beauty College. In addition to completing their chosen program, recipients will:

  • Enroll in and complete our Business Development Course
  • Assist with marketing and promotional initiatives
  • Support social media content creation
  • Help coordinate student engagement activities
  • Represent the college in community and recruitment efforts

This is a leadership-based scholarship, not simply a tuition award.

Attendance & Performance Expectations

Because this scholarship represents an investment of up to $10,500, accountability is required.

  • Missing three (3) days may result in a reduction of scholarship benefits.
  • Missing 10 days without a documented medical excuse will result in dismissal from the scholarship program.

Ambassador Scholars must maintain professionalism, satisfactory academic progress, and positive conduct at all times.

Application Requirements

To be considered, applicants must:

  1. Submit an online application through our website
  2. Pay the $45 non-refundable application fee
  3. Participate in an in-person interview
  4. Submit:
     
    • Three letters of support
    • A professional résumé
    • A 250-word essay explaining why they deserve to be selected

Incomplete applications will not be considered.

Who Should Apply?

We are seeking individuals who are:

  • Driven and self-motivated
  • Committed to consistent attendance
  • Interested in entrepreneurship and leadership
  • Ready to represent Ascend with integrity

If you are prepared to work, lead, and grow — we are prepared to invest in you.
