IGNITE YOUR AESTHETIC PASSION!

Contact education@lashandcompany.com to enroll. Lash and Company does not recruit students attending or admitted to other schools offering similar programs of study.

Credits from another institution will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Lash and Company does not guarantee transferability of our credits to another institution unless there is a written agreement with another institution.

Postponement of Start Date: Postponement of a starting date, whether at the request of the school or the student, requires a written agreement signed by the student and the school. The agreement must set forth:

• whether the postponement is for the convenience of the school or the student; and
• the deadline for the new start date, beyond which the start date will not be postponed.

If the course is not commenced, or the student fails to attend by the new start date set forth in the agreement, the student will be entitled to an appropriate refund of prepaid tuition and fees within 30 days of the deadline in accordance with the school’s refund policy and all applicable laws and Rules concerning the Private Occupational Education Act of 1981.

If the start of a program needs to be delayed or canceled, the School will work with the Student to arrange a new start date. Should a refund be required, it will be done in accordance with the refund policy contained within this catalog.

Students who are unable to continue classes for medical reasons or severe personal problems will be required to take a leave of absence until they are able to return to class. Proper documentation will be required to substantiate a student’s withdrawal.

The student must meet both attendance and academic requirements. Students will be tested on the previous week’s material at the beginning of each week and must pass the test with a 75% or better. If the student’s cumulative grade average is 75% or above, and attendance is 66.67% of the hours required, the student will be determined as making satisfactory progress. At the completion of each quarter of training, the student must demonstrate the ability to complete all program requirements within the allotted time frame by scheduled attendance/make-up work.

Students who do not have an average grade of 75% and/or 66.67% of the hours required at 450 hours will be placed on academic/attendance probation. The student on probation will be given a period of 30 school days to improve performance. If the student during this time improves on their % and is not yet in Satisfactory Progress they may be given an additional 14 days. However, if the student doesn’t meet the minimum of Satisfactory Progress at the end of 45 days they will be terminated from their program. At any time during the probationary period if the student fails to improve they may be terminated from the school at any time.

Any student may be dismissed for violations of rules and regulations of the school, as set forth in school publications. A student also may be withdrawn from classes if he or she does not prepare sufficiently, neglects assignments, or makes unsatisfactory progress. The director, after consultation with all parties involved, makes the final decision.

The Director of Education may dismiss students whose conduct is disruptive or unacceptable to the academic setting.

• Disruptive is defined as: Preventing class from commencing as normal or taking attention away from the lesson/planned class materials to be covered. Not allowing the instructor to stay on time and on schedule relative to the lesson plan.
• Unacceptable is defined as: Not satisfactory or allowable pertaining to the Student L+C Handbook.

After appropriate counseling, students who demonstrate a genuine desire to learn and conform to school standards of conduct, may be allowed to resume attendance. The director will review each case and decide upon re-admittance.

Standards and Codes of Conduct: We firmly believe that a strong foundation of general standards and codes of conduct are essential for every student’s success. These guiding principles serve as a compass, immediately shaping the experience of students as they embark on their educational journey with Lash and Company. Some important aspects include:

• Attendance and Punctuality: Recognizing the significance of time, our classrooms open their doors at 8:45 am, providing students with ample opportunity for study and exam preparation. Lab starts promptly at 9:00 am or 4:00 pm, adhering to a disciplined schedule that fosters a culture of dedication and punctuality. For specific hours of operation, please refer to the syllabus of your designated location. The contracted date of graduation may be changed throughout your program because of unexpected school closures. Once a student has used all time allotted for absenteeism, they will be required to purchase additional training hours, at the current hourly tuition rate. Payment arrangements must be made with the Instate Agent at that time. Students are required to call in if not attending school for the day. When calling in, you must speak with a School Official.
• Commitment to Lab Assignments: To maximize the learning experience, students are expected to remain in their assigned labs for the duration of the semester. Should any unique circumstances necessitate accommodations, we encourage open communication with your instructor to ensure a seamless journey. At Lash and Company, we strive to create an environment where excellence thrives and students flourish, guided by our shared values of integrity, dedication, and a relentless pursuit of knowledge. Welcome to a transformative educational experience unlike any other.
