Cosmetology transfers are accepted only if previous training was earned at a Pivot Point Institution. Transfer students are accepted after careful evaluation and a review of the student’s academic records. PB will evaluate students for previous cosmetology hours with 600 or more training hours acquired in a Pivot Point School. The student must obtain an official transcript of hours in order to be given proper hourly credit. This policy applies only to the cosmetology program. Transfers are not accepted into the aesthetics or nail design program.

Once the transcript is received, the student must be evaluated in order to validate the hours. A written and practical test is administered. The School informs the NJ State Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling regarding the total number of hours for which the student will receive credit. Tuition will be pro-rated on a per hour basis. The transferring student will pay tuition at an hourly rate for the reminder of hours required by the NJ State Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling for the course. PB endeavors to place students into classrooms according to educational experience and hour requirements; however it cannot be guaranteed that individual curriculum deficiencies will be addressed. Transfer students will be required to  to purchase an equipment kit.
