Important message from the Director of Admissions:
If you want apply for the next class opening or to be put on a waitlist you must have submitted a fully and accurately completed admissions packet. Because we offer some classes online, this process is considered a part of your admissions interview and exam. We want to be sure you have the ability to demonstrate attention to detail, ability to comprehend and execute detailed instructions - all of which demonstrates your ability to successfully participate in an online class and thrive in the master/medical esthetics industry. (Parents should only complete the financial aid portion if a dependent student is applying.)
A limited number of candidates are accepted into the school each year to ensure the integrity of our rigorous and high-quality academic environment. This school is geared towards individuals who want to obtain the master/ medical esthetician level. Please be aware that every interaction a candidate has with the admissions department and staff is noted on their admissions packet, interview / exam. Candidates who are rude and disrespectful to staff will not receive an invitation for admissions to the school. Rude and disrespectful behavior demonstrates the individual is not able to successfully complete the admissions interview, or follow the professional / behavioral expectations as outlined in the catalog, or meet the mission of the school. Please approach all parts of this process with all this information in mind.
Because of the high volume of emails and calls we receive, fully and accurately completed admissions packets will receive seniority on the call back list. For your convenience, and to provide you immediate information, all information related to programs such as schedule, cost and curriculum is listed on the program page. All information related to admissions requirements is located on the admissions pages and we also have a tour page which shows our upscale and modern facility. FAFSA has a hotline that assists you with completing the aid related items listed on our admissions PDF. (The school does not fill out aid forms for applicants.)
All financial aid info is available at: https://studentaid.gov/. We encourage you to discuss your enrollment with your family to ensure you have their support and we encourage you to take the time you need to consider the commitment needed to be successful, and review all information necessary to make an informed decision prior to enrollment. Because we limit class sizes our classes do book up fast but if one section is booked you can always apply for the next session or apply for a wait list or apply for a later start.
When you reach out to us by submitting your online application, we will attempt to make initial contact by phone or text. If there is no immediate contact or response we will move to the next candidate. If you are serious about enrollment, send in a fully completed packet as noted on this list.
