Premiere Aesthetics Institute-Meridian
For-profit College in Meridian, ID.
Academics
This institution reports no six-year graduation rate. The federal measure only follows first-time, full-time students, so schools built around part-time or transfer enrollment often fall outside it entirely. The student-faculty ratio is 19:1 — typical, which in practice means large lectures early and smaller classes in the major. This is a for-profit short-program school. That is not disqualifying, but it does mean verifying accreditation, transferability of credits, and job-placement claims directly rather than trusting the category. This is a small school — 86 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 81 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $18,802 annually once grants are applied. The gap between the $0–30k and $75–110k bands is narrow ($14,773 versus $20,589), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Grant aid is limited — 26% of students receive any. 27% of students take federal loans, a middling borrowing rate.
Entering first-year students
A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.

Net price by family income
The same students as the headline above, limited to those who received Title IV federal aid — a narrower group, with a lower overall average. IPEDS publishes no combined figure across these bands, so they should not be averaged into one.

| $0–30k | $14,773 |
| $30–48k | $16,939 |
