      Hi Katherine,
      Any questions you have that have not been satisfactorily answered on our website, feel free to post them or you can email me, candace@sierrabeautycollege.net. Also you can come to our next orientation, May 8th at 10am. The instructor will go over everything there and you are welcome to ask her any questions in person as well.

    I am interested in the cosmetology program. When do classes/enrollment start? How long is the program on average? What is the daily class schedule as far as days and hours per day?

    • Candace says:

      Hi Catherine! The next orientation is this week, May 7th at 10am, and the class will start the following Tuesday, May 13th. We have three different schedules for students:

      Full time ~ 8:30am-5:00pm, Tues-Sat
      3/4 time ~ 8:30am-3:00pm, Tues-Sat
      Part time ~ 8:30am-12:30pm, Tues-Sat

      Students that attend full time can graduate in about 10 months, students that attend 3/4 time graduate in about a year, and part time students graduate in about 18 months.

      Hi Jailene, come to orientation first (the next one is May 6 at 10am). We will go over course information, you’ll take a basic entrance exam, and then make an appointment to get enrolled.
