Scholarships/Incentives/Discounts Policy

The scholarship is reserved for those who are qualified, often ones that had exhausted other options such as federal financial aid, military benefits, Kentucky vocational rehabilitation assistance, and other grants. The student has the responsibility to understand the student contracts accordingly.

School scholarship is provided specifically to incentivize attendance and study to graduation. The student’s scholarship is voided if the student is clock-in and leaves without clocking out. Three-level of the void of the scholarship will happen: 1) $100 scholarship is voided for the first time, 2) $200 scholarship is voided for the second time and 4) the Entire scholarship is voided for the third time. The persistence of this activity will lead to the potential withdrawal of the program.

Attendance Policy

KY state board of cosmetology requires a least some students attendance every two weeks; missing two consecutive weeks would immediately lead to withdrawal from the program. Louisville Beauty Academy accommodates students’ schedules as students work closely with his/her instructor, but all have to fall within the scope of stated requirements from the KY state board. “Flexible schedule DOES NOT mean no attendance in two consecutive weeks. It means attendance happens every week but within the agreement of the instructor and student.” Please read the school catalog for more detail.

Transferred Students

All students’ success is important to Louisville Beauty Academy. To ensure that transferred students are equipped and getting the same level of education from us as all our full-time students, we would ask that all our transferred students to:

  • Buy Louisville Beauty Academy CIMA-Online Course for Theory
  • Buy Louisville Beauty Academy Student Tool Kits for practical
  • Be prepared to learn hard since you are only with us for short time

Transferred students are not full-time students. Because transferred students are not going full-ride with Louisville Beauty Academy, the scholarship and book/kits/fee discount does not apply to you.
