We require all students to provide a valid, government-issued ID or driver's license. This is essential for identity verification during the registration process.

You will need to submit an official high school transcript to verify your educational background. This can be obtained from your high school or a third-party transcript service. If you have completed a GED, a copy of that certificate is also acceptable.

To ensure the health and safety of all students, we require a copy of your current immunization record. This is a standard requirement for all students before they begin classes.

A $150 non-refundable application fee is required to complete your registration. This fee helps us cover administrative costs and ensures that you are fully enrolled in the program.

We encourage all prospective students to take a tour of our school before finalizing their enrollment. This allows you to meet our instructors, see our facilities, and get a feel for our community. Tours can be scheduled through our website or by contacting our admissions office.
