Foreign High School and College Graduate Enrollment Requirements
For enrollment at Louisville Beauty Academy, all students with foreign high school diplomas or transcripts (including college degrees or transcripts) must submit both the original document and a photo of the original document. In addition, full payment—whether discounted or regular—must be made for the translation and validation of foreign diplomas. No exceptions will be made to this requirement.
Louisville Beauty Academy is both licensed and state-accredited and partners with a national agency to ensure that all foreign diplomas are translated and validated in accordance with Kentucky State Board of Cosmetology standards. Translation and validation are mandatory before the school can officially enroll you. While we can handle the translation and validation process for you, it is important to note that the Kentucky State Board of Cosmetology only accepts translations completed by agencies that are approved by the Board. Documents translated by agencies not approved by the Kentucky State Board will not be accepted.
For enrollment assistance or any questions regarding the translation and validation process, please contact us by email at [email protected] or text us at 502-625-5531.
Payment Plan Policy and Fees
Students are permitted to make monthly payments of any amount exceeding $100. The following late fees will apply based on the payment amount:
- $0 Late Fee: For students who pay in full or make monthly payments of $500 or more.
- $50 Late Fee: For monthly payments less than $500.
- $100 Late Fee: For monthly payments less than $200.
- $250 Late Fee: For months with no payment.
Payment Requirements:
Students must pay the full program cost, minus any applicable incentives or discounts, before graduation. Graduation will not be granted until the outstanding balance is paid in full.
Note: The remaining balance may fluctuate based on your monthly payments, late fees incurred, and your incentive or discount activities. What you say you will do does not carry weight—what you actually do will count toward the discounts you receive. Students are encouraged to stay current with payments to avoid penalties and ensure timely completion of their program.
Scholarships/Incentives/Discounts Policy
- Scholarships are reserved for students who qualify, typically those who have exhausted other funding options such as federal financial aid, military benefits, Kentucky vocational rehabilitation assistance, and other grants. Students are responsible for fully understanding and agreeing to the terms outlined in their student contract.
- The scholarship program is designed to incentivize consistent attendance and academic progress. The student’s scholarship will be voided if they clock in and leave without clocking out. The scholarship voiding policy is as follows:
- First Incident: $100 of the scholarship will be voided.
- Second Incident: $200 of the scholarship will be voided.
- Third Incident: The entire scholarship will be voided.
- Continued violations may result in potential withdrawal from the program.
Attendance Policy
The Kentucky State Board of Cosmetology requires that students attend at least once every two weeks. Missing two consecutive weeks of attendance will result in immediate withdrawal from the program. While Louisville Beauty Academy offers flexible scheduling, students must meet the state board’s attendance requirements.
Note: Flexible scheduling does not allow for two consecutive weeks of absence. Flexible scheduling means attendance happens weekly, as agreed upon by the student and instructor. Please refer to the school catalog for more details.
Transferred Students Policy
Louisville Beauty Academy is committed to the success of all students, including transfer students. To ensure that transfer students receive the same level of education as full-time students, the following is required:
- Transfer students must purchase the Louisville Beauty Academy CIMA-Online Course for theory.
- Transfer students must purchase the Louisville Beauty Academy Student Tool Kits for practical training.
- Transfer students should be prepared for a more intense learning experience, as they will have a shorter enrollment period with us.
Important: Transfer students are not considered full-time students. Therefore, the scholarship and discounts on books, kits, or fees do not apply to transfer students. The flexibility of the program is available, but it is the responsibility of the student to stay on track with their progress and attend as required.
Licensing Focus First
Louisville Beauty Academy focuses on preparing students for licensing exams as the primary objective. Students must complete their licensing theory and practical exam preparation before progressing to professional salon services. The successful completion of licensing exams is a requirement before moving on to advanced coursework in professional service.
