What does Cosmetology- Operator Training Programs(AAS) mean?

  • I am applying for college and there are a few different choices for cosmetology classes. One of the choices has (AAS). I have no idea what that means.

  • Answer:

    That's great that you're applying to college. The AAS re: (regarding) college usually means Associate in Applied Science which is an associate (two-year) degree but in a specialized (as opposed to liberal arts or pre-med, for example), career-oriented field. With regard to schooling, please avoid those private overly priced For-profit beauty/tech schools and instead consider the more affordable community college (or even the county vo-tech school) as long as the program is approved by the State board of cosmetology. It might take the cosmetology graduate a couple of years to "get a book" (of regular customers) before possibly making decent money in the field.
