PLACEMENT:

Job placement assistance is provided to graduates and students at no additional charge, but the school gives no guarantee of employment nor does the school use placement data as an incentive to entice prospective students to enroll.  Communication is maintained between the salon community and the college.  Surveys are taken inquiring which salons will be open to employing our graduates.  Salons call the college frequently to inquire about our graduates.  Training is provided to students on job interview techniques and the development of a resume.

ADVISING:

Each of our staff members is genuinely interested in you.  Advising is available from people much like yourself, who have met and solved some of the very same problems that you may mow be facing.  The staff cannot guess when you may need advising, you are encouraged to request a advising session with any instructor or administrative personal at any time.  You will be welcomed on an individual basis.  Students are also counseled individually, to review the student’s progress and career advising is also available.

TRANSFER and RE-ENTRY POLICY:

Student transferring into this school from another school in the State of California must, present his/her record of withdrawal from the prior school if the student wishes to be afforded credit for prior hours training.

Students desiring credit for training from schools out of this state must, submit proof of training to the State Board of Cosmetology for approval.  The Board will provide the applicant with acknowledgment of approved credit.  In some cases the applicant will be entitled to take the State Board examination in other cases the applicant will be required to enroll in an approved institution in California for additional training.

 This institution will recognize approved records of prior training and will give appropriate credit.  Students in good standing who withdraw temporarily will be able to reenter training without loss of credit.  It is the policy that this school does not recruit students already attending or admitted to another school offering a similar program  of study.

ACCESS FOR HANDICAPPED STUDENTS:

ASIAN AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL BEAUTY COLLEGE accepts students with minor handicaps, but cannot accept students with major handicaps due to the nature of the profession.  Our school complies with all state and local requirements regarding facilities for the handicapped.

CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY REHABILITATION:

Under the 1986 Reauthorization of the Higher Education Act, school is required to have a program or plan of drug prevention in effect as of July 1, 1987.  This program must be available to students as well as to staff members.  A school may approach one or more organizations that assist the general public (hospitals for example) with drug problems.  That organization may give them the name of an official that can be contacted, the school would then be considered to be in compliance with the drug prevention requirement.  In some cases many agencies are supported by the state and the cost to the user may be limited or nonexistent.  At this school we are suggesting the use of the following companies for compliance with this new law:
