How to Finance Your Career Training When FAFSA Isn’t An Option

It is our mission to provide students with the most comprehensive short-term make up artist training available, preparing them for a career that has limitless possibilities. At AMUA, we want to help make that happen for you!

Completing the enrollment process is the first step to beginning your new career as a makeup artist. We fully understand some of the possible challenges of securing a loan to help fund your post-secondary educational goals. The team at AMUA is committed to assisting each applicant in this process by sharing financing options that may be of help to you. 

The Lending Club and Prosper are popular P2P (peer-to-peer) lending companies offering more affordable loans than traditional bank lending programs.  The application process is easy, online, has a relatively quick turnaround of 5-7 days. Another plus: the inquiry does not affect your credit score! Of course the higher your FICO credit score, the better the terms will be, but loans can be secured on credit scores as low as 640 (Prosper) and 660 (Lending Club) with payback plans of 1,3 or 5 years.

Don’t forget, if you are in the military or the spouse of someone in the military, be sure to check on benefits available to you thru MYCAA and VA Benefits.  

Please let us know how we can assist you in the completion of your AMUA application and enrollment requirements.  

An exciting career in the makeup arts is waiting for you!
