Some students who previously enrolled at this institution and were unable to successfully graduate, sit for licensure and/or obtain employment attested that they were unable or unwilling to do so specifically due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Students who made such attestations have been excluded from the calculation of this rate.


In compliance with the National Accrediting Commission of Career Arts and Science (NACCAS) standards and policies, the International Institute of Cosmetology must provide you with information prior to enrollment. NACCAS requires an institution to meet or exceed the following measures of student success: Graduation rate: 50%; Pass rate on state licensing examination: 70%; and Placement rate of graduates: 60%

Definitions:

Graduation Rate – Percentage of students scheduled to graduate in 2020 who actually graduated as of submission of NACCAS 2021 annual report. The graduation rate does not reflect the students who may have transferred out and graduated due in part to the training provided by the IIC; nor does it show those who may have graduated their program at the School after the designated reporting period. A student is not considered a graduate even if they have completed all education requirements if they have an outstanding balance.

Licensure Rate – Number of students scheduled to graduate in 2020 who took the State Board licensing exam for the first time divided by number of students who passed by the submission of the NACCAS 2021 annual report.

Placement Rate – Percentage of 2020 graduates eligible for employment who actually found employment in field as of submission of NACCAS 2021 annual report.

*This statistical information is calculated by using accumulative data that is verified by an internal audit and submitted to NACCAS annually.​
