This page focuses on the debt students take on to attend The Salon Professional Academy - Kenosha: median debt, the percentile spread, total borrowing including PLUS loans, and the cost to repay. These figures are reported by the Department of Education and IPEDS.
At TSPA - Kenosha specifically, 97% of new students use loans toward freshman-year expenses, averaging $7,589 each, across private and federal loan sources.
On the federal side, the average loan is $7,589. This reaches or tops the $5,500 first-year federal borrowing cap for a typical dependent student. Note that average undergraduate loan amounts shown later do not include private loans — so the full freshman figure above is not directly comparable.
Counting every undergraduate at TSPA - Kenosha, 66% use federal student loans to help pay for their education, with a mean of $8,506 annually. That amounts to 12.1% more than the $7,589 freshmen take on.
Borrowing at that rate every year works out to about $17,012 in two years and roughly $34,024 over a four-year span. This projection keeps yearly federal borrowing flat and excludes private and Parent PLUS loans.

Subsidized vs. Unsubsidized Loans
Unsubsidized federal student loans accrue interest every month — even while you are still enrolled. Unless you pay that interest as it builds, the balance you owe at graduation can be noticeably higher than the amount you originally borrowed.
Important to Remember
Federal student loans are not discharged in bankruptcy in all but the rarest cases, and the government can withhold part of your income or tax refund if you default.
