About the program

Cosmetology School of Arts & Sciences offers 1,600 hours of in-person cosmetology training in Burley. The program combines classroom theory with supervised work in the student salon, covering hair, skin and nail services.

The first 100 hours focus on classroom study and mannequin practice. Later training develops client-service skills and preparation for the Idaho licensing examination.

What you get

You earn a diploma of graduation after completing 1,600 hours, the required curriculum, the school’s final examination and its 75% theory, practical and attendance requirements.

The diploma is the school qualification; state licensing is a separate step. The school requires financial obligations to be settled or arrangements made before releasing records for licensing.

Full-time study is described as 60 weeks. Part-time schedules are available to qualifying students, but their days and hours are not specified.

New classes begin monthly. Orientation is generally on the first Monday at 10:30 AM, with classes starting the following Tuesday at 9:00 AM.
