In addition to teaching our students the fundamentals and more advanced practices, we train each student in business relations and best practices. Upon graduation, students will feel more confident pursuing their dream in the beauty industry and forge a new career with a well-rounded understanding of techniques and business operations.

What is the best College to go to, to be a Cosmetology
Cherokye, I think the best college to attend is the one that is the best fit for you. I hope this is not sounding like I am giving a PC response, but truly there are so many different types of schools out there; there are large branded schools, botique schools, accredited and non-accredited … I would suggest you visiting some to see what is the right fit.

Hi
Can I also join school while im 16 yrs old and also in grade11?
Alwande, it depends on the state and the school. For example, in Washington State you may enroll but not be licensed until you are 17 years old. However, some schools require that students have a HS Diploma or GED. Other schools may have agreements with local school districts or Skills Centers to assist current HS Juniors to attend.
What if u have a higher education certificate and u wanna study cosmetology is it possible to do it
Melody, I would encourage you to reach out to your state governing agency. The state laws are all very unique. Example: If your higher education degree was in ‘Education’, such as permitting to teach, it could be recognized as an equivalency for an instructor license in specific states, such as Washington.
do you need spanish 2 to get in?
I am young and wish to go to a cosmetology school, but I was wondering if we need a good PSAT score to enter because most schools now don’t require it.
Hello Milah, I am so excited to hear that you want to pursue a career in Cosmetology. Requirements are typically set by the schools (and sometimes the state). In terms of PSAT scores, you will want to check with the specific school in your area. However to my knowledge, I am not aware of ANY beauty schools that require PSAT scores. I have seen other assessments, but not PSAT.
