Cosmetology

What's the perfect path for students with a strong sense of personal style, artistic creativity and passion for working with people? Moraine Park’s Cosmetology technical diploma is a 12-month program that prepares graduates for the state Cosmetology Licensing Exam. Students begin by learning classroom theory and fundamental skill development. Then students are able to apply their skills on clients in a professional salon environment, providing hair, skin and nail services. Students also attend area beauty shows and hear guest presentations from industry artists.

This career requires the stamina to stand for longer periods to perform salon services.  Class attendance is crucial to student success.

Program start dates are scheduled for August and January each academic year. (Classes run Monday - Friday.)

Students must be accepted into the program prior to enrolling in the courses. All fees must be paid prior to program start. Class size is limited to the first 20 paid students. Early enrollment is encouraged. Students are strongly encouraged to get on the waiting list, if necessary. As class space becomes available, wait-list students are offered the spots. See an academic advisor for more information.
