The school offers tool awards for students nearing graduation. There are two different routes:

  • Top Shop awards: Shop instructors select students in good standing, considering completed work, attendance and conduct. These awards provide tools valued at $1,500, $500 or $350; students do not apply for this route.
  • Application-based tool awards: Students complete a separate tool-award application. Awards depend on available funds, and the application deadline is March 1, 2027.

These are not guaranteed tuition discounts. The separate UCT scholarships support students planning further college or adult education. Federal student aid for this high-school cosmetology program is not confirmed.
