Student Information

Diversity In Admissions Statement

SCBC welcomes to its learning community women and men of diverse backgrounds, religious affiliations, ethnic and racial identifications, and sexual orientations. It is the basic policy of SCBC to administer its employment and admissions practices – including those pertaining to recruitment, hiring, transfers, promotions, tuition remission, compensation, benefits and terminations- in a non-discriminatory manner, without regard to race, religion, color, age, sex, sexual orientation, national/ethnic origin, handicap/disability, or any other basis prohibited by applicable federal, state, or local fair employment laws or regulations.

New Student Recruitment Policy

The State College of Beauty Culture, Inc. follows the recruitment policies as dictated by NACCAS and does not knowingly attempt to recruit students already attending or admitted to another school offering a similar program of study.

Requirements

To attend the State College of Beauty Culture, Inc. the following criteria is necessary for admission:

1.      You must be at least 17 years old.  If you are under 18, a parent signature is required.

2.      Must demonstrate the prerequisite aptitude for the study of cosmetology subject matter and client communication by showing documentation of your high school diploma or an equivalent certificate (GED, HSED) and transcripts/scores.

3.      Must be competent to meet the physical demands encountered in the respective course. Learning and/or medical disabilities must be supported with valid written documentation to make accommodations within state regulations prior to enrollment.

SCBC seeks to enroll students who are prepared to have a successful college experience. As a result, grades (from high school or previous colleges), test scores, course content, and life experiences may be considered in making an admission decision.

High School Diploma Verification

SCBC will research the validity of any High School Diplomas that are not a recognized High School Diploma. 

Registration Policies

Enrollment applications can be obtained from the admissions office. Pre-registration is advisable due to the limitations in class size. Applications may be considered until one week before the first day of classes, though earlier deadlines may be set. As a result, it is to the student’s benefit to submit materials sooner.

An appointment with the admissions office should be scheduled to review admissions requirements including an entrance interview, class starting availability & registration, as well as a tour of the facility.

An appointment with the Financial Advisor should be scheduled to discuss financial options including financial aid, payment plans and scholarships. Any balance not covered by financial aid must be paid by the first day of class or by payment options with obligations to be paid by graduation.

Vaccination Policy

SCBC does not require vaccinations for admissions into any of our programs. Contact the Public Health Department or your own health care provider if you are interested in getting more information about vaccinations.

Disability Services

Please request a copy of "Reasonable Accommodation Policy which is available in the administrative office. After reading the policy, prospective and current students can make their reasonable accommodation request at any time during admissions or enrollment. It is important to follow all of the steps and, provide current and relevant documentation in order to arrange the most appropriate plan.
Accommodation requests are not guaranteed. The details of each reasonable accommodation requested plan must be agreed upon by both parties prior to acceptance of the plan by either party.
