W. Sumpter Institute of Cosmetology and Barbering will allow students to transfer into our institution on a case-by-case basis. The State Board of Cosmetology and Barber Examiners of Missouri recognizes hours from previous training. Hours recognized by the Missouri State Board of Cosmetology and Barber Examiners will be accepted at W. Sumpter Institute of Cosmetology and Barbering without any loss of those hours. The school will contact the Board to determine the amount of previous training hours still in effect. Out of state students must get their hours approved by the Missouri State Board of Cosmetology and Barber Examiners before being admitted. Tuition will be charged on a pro-rata basis. Contact the admissions office for more information. Transfer students, once accepted, will be placed in the class level based upon the number of transfer hours the student is enrolling with. Transfer students will not be responsible for course work that comes before the level of class in which the transfer student is placed.
Students who discontinue training and then re-enroll within 6 months of their date of termination will be admitted under the terms of their original Enrollment Agreement (with full credit for all monies paid). Students who retained their books and kit must furnish such upon their re-enrollment. W. Sumpter Institute of Cosmetology and Barbering only keeps books, equipment, and supplies for 30 days after a student terminates. In the event of multiple terminations and re-enrollments, only those within 6 months of the first termination will be honored under this policy. Students who have terminated and re-enrolled more than once will not be re-admitted unless complete payment of any prior balances owed the school, or acceptable payment arrangements, have been made. Students who discontinue and re-enroll after 6 months of termination date will be charged the same as a transfer student, plus will also be responsible for any balance still owed the school from previous enrollments.
