Use these admissions questions to compare program fit, schedules, costs, financial-aid steps, student salon practice, and campus expectations.
Ask about the program fit
Start with your goal. If you are interested in hair, ask about cosmetology and men’s styling. If skin care or spa services interest you, ask about esthetics. If hands, feet, nail art, and enhancement work appeal to you, ask about nail technology.
Ask how training becomes hands-on
Prospective students should understand how classroom work connects to supervised service practice. Ask when practical work begins, how educator review works, and what professional standards are expected in the student salon environment.
Ask what documents and costs are current
Program schedules, admissions documents, costs, equipment, and financial-aid steps can change. Ask admissions for the current version of every decision-making document before you enroll.
Ask what support happens after your inquiry
After you request information, admissions should help you compare program options, schedule a tour, review financial-aid steps for those who qualify, and understand what happens before training begins.
Questions to ask admissions
- What program details are current for the Oak Forest campus?
- What schedule, document, supply, and cost information should I review before deciding?

What strong admissions answers should include
A good admissions conversation should help students compare program fit, timing, cost, documents, campus environment, and support before enrolling. Ask which program best matches your goals, what a normal training week can look like, what supplies or kits are discussed during enrollment, and how students are prepared for supervised client-service practice. Students should also ask how to review school catalog information, disclosures, financial-aid steps for those who qualify, and any current program availability details directly with admissions.
