Every year professional beauty schools receive hundreds if not thousands of applications to their institutions. Many are accepted while some are rejected. Though some may be rejected due to lack of qualification the bulk of the applications are revoked due to avoidable mistakes. These mistakes include but not limited to;
Missing The Deadline For Your Beauty School Application
Late submission of your application form can lead to revocation. This is not only due to the inconvenience that you create by being late but it also shows lack of discipline. To avoid submitting your application late, make sure all the requirements are available and on time to avoid last minute rush.
Hiding Your Creative Side Properly
Showcasing your achievements influences the admissions panel. Hiding your creative side or not fluently showing your creative side may lead to an ignored admission application.
Copying Pasting Information
Copying pasting may be easy and convenient but may lead to mistakes that will cost you that admission. Copy pasted work has typos and content that may be similar but unwanted for your application.
Failing to Follow Instructions
Application forms come with instructions on how they should be filled. A wrongly filled application may be understood to imply lack of understanding and thus lead to a rejected admission.
Incomplete Application Forms
Almost all incomplete application forms are rejected. Make sure you go through your application form and double check to ensure all the required information is provided. Not including requested information will dent your chances
Inappropriate Behavior on Social Media
Most tertiary institutions are now on social media. Admission boards check social media platform so be warned about posting scandalous photos and messages. Clean your social media profile if you intend to sell your clean image.
High Profile Referees
Beauty school admissions counselors are not interested in who you know but are rather interested in who your mentors or guardians are. A recommendation letter from a teacher or guidance counselor is of more importance since they know well. Seek a recommendation letter early and avoid last minute rush since teachers are normally swamped then.
Grammatical Errors
Failure to proofread your application may lead you to handing in a poorly written application that is full of grammatical errors. Proofreading your work is important
Exaggerated Extra Curriculum Activities
As you seek to impress the admissions board, don’t fall into the trap of exaggerating your extracurricular activity as it may do you more harm than good.
Looking For The Shortest Course
Seek admission to a beauty school course that is long enough to cover all the necessary course work.
