**All incoming  students must attend an orientation which will be held on the 1st day of class. During orientation the student will learn about responsibilities and standards, the format of the program, the progression of the program, and how performance will be measured.

Each program length will vary depending on your states required hours for licensure. Subjects include haircutting, hair coloring, facials, makeup, manicuring, salon management and much more. Upon completion of the program, the Student is qualified to take the state licensing exam. Upon successful completion of state licensing requirements, the student may seek employment as an entry-level licensed cosmetologist. Please review the state you’re interested in attending and click on your desired program for more details. 

Tuition rates vary by program and state requirements. Students will be given tuition rates when inquiring about admission to the school of their choice.  

Currently we do not offer financial aid. However, we do have payment plans and student loans available through our 3rd party affiliate loan agencies. Your Career Planning Specialist will provide you with information about financial assistance.  

You may pay your tuition in full, you may put down a deposit and set up a payment arrangement or you may apply for a loan with one of our affiliate loan agencies.  Any remaining balance may be paid upon a monthly basis that is customizable.  We try to make our education as affordable as possible to help students gain employment with little debt. This information is provided during admissions.

Yes. Currently, scholarships are available to all new incoming students. Please check with Admissions.

Our Apprenticeship school only accepts transfer hours from students from another state certified apprenticeship school. Our traditional school may accept your hours. Please send us your transcript through email at: admissions@bgbschoolofcareers.com for additional information. After sending it, please request an official copy be sent from the school where you obtained the hours.  Our comprehensive courses ensure that you get more than enough hours to be successful in your beauty career. 

We will soon have virtual tours available. Please look for the posted video. 

Black Girl Beauty School of Careers care about its students.  We post up employer flyers that seek licensed and certified students on our “Job Board.”  All graduating students will receive a lifetime membership to our association and a lifetime mentorship opportunity. Don’t be afraid to ask for help, that is what the school is here for! 

No. You must be licensed before you can start working as a professional. However, if you are on an apprenticeship program you should already be with a salon for on-the-job-training. You do have the option to continue to work at that salon until you pass the exam. After your enrollment agreement and you passed the exam any employment communication is discussed between you and the salon owner of your choice.

All states have their own board of cosmetology. Most states reciprocate but not all, so you may need to go to school in order to obtain those additional hours. Whatever hours is needed we can help you. Just call or come in with your license to see what you need in order to become licensed. You would have to contact the state board of cosmetology to apply for reciprocity to obtain your license in that state.  The state will also let you know what is needed to obtain reciprocity. The process is fairly easy.  

The traditional campus will offer guest services. No services are offered to the public through our Apprenticeship School. We will update the website when our traditional school clinic floor will open.   

Georgia – Our Georgia Campus offers all the theory online. Practical is on campus.
