Policies

TRANSFER OF CREDIT FOR PREVIOUS TRAINING/RE-ENTRY POLICY Credit will be given from other schools if the school is teaching a full and complete program. Transfer hours from another institution that are accepted toward the student’s educational program are counted as both attempted and completed hours for the purpose of determining when the allowable maximum time frame has been exhausted. SAP evaluation periods are based on actual contracted hours at the institution. All hours and services must be transferred from the prior school. The actual amount of credit that a student can receive will depend on the student’s ability to perform practical work and his/her theoretical knowledge. Determination is made through an examination and left to the discretion of the Director. If a student is requesting a transcript of credits and hours obtained at our school, they must be paid in full with the school, as per contract. There will be a charge of $20.00 to obtain the original transcript (in house) or $25.00 if it needs to be mailed (certified mail). Over contract fee is according to the additional hours needed; the rate is $18.12 per hour. A licensed Cosmetologist wishing to become a licensed barber will be considered a transfer student provided he or she has completed a 1250-hour cosmetologist training course or obtained a current license. Upon application to the board, he or she will be given 555 hours of credit for subjects previously covered in the cosmetology training course. They will need to complete 695 hours to pass the practical and theory tests to obtain a Barber License.
