Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to graduate?
The length of time it takes to graduate from a program requiring a license varies depending on how many hours you attend each week. The minimum number of hours is 33 per week, but you can attend up to 40 hours per week. The more hours you attend, the faster you graduate. If you were to take the Cosmetology course and attend 40 hours/week, you would graduate in less than 10 months.
