Enrollment Info

Enrollment Dates and Terms of Course
Classes are held five days per week: Tuesday – Saturday 9:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. (with a 30 minute lunch break). The 1800 clock hours course required for graduation takes approximately 10½ months to complete for full time students who attend eight hours per day, forty hours a week. Enrollment dates are set based on chair availability.

Part Time
We understand that not everyone can attend on a full time basis because of home or job responsibilities. However, we do admit a select number of applicants to attend part time if schedules can be arranged without creating difficulties for either the college or the students. If you need a part time schedule, an interview must be arranged to discuss scheduling alternatives. A full 8-hour day on Saturday is one of the requirements, as well as a minimum of 16 hours Tuesday through Friday. Attending the college on a part time basis for 1800 hours takes approximately one and a half years to complete.

Admission Requirements & Procedures
Each student must have a high school diploma or its equivalent, and must be at least 17 years or older.
Each student must make an application to the college and have a personal interview with the director.
Upon acceptance, all students must submit the following to the college:

A copy of their birth certificate
Proof of education (Diploma, G.E.D. or a letter from the school attended)
A certificate from a licensed physician stating that the student has had a V.D.R.L. Blood Test
and that he / she has no contagious, infectious or communicable disease

Credit For Previous Training
Credit will be given for previous barber training when approved by the Ohio State Barber Board,
and with an examination by the instructor to determine how much credit is to be given.

Advanced Training
Advanced training is available to licensed barbers. The barber is first evaluated to determine his or her
individual needs. In most cases, a minimum of 300 hours is required. Each program is specifically
designed for the individual. At the end of 300 hours, the student is evaluated again to determine if
additional training is needed.
