ELEGANCE INTERNATIONAL

IntroductionWelcome to EI, Elegance International Inc., the fi rst school of professional makeup in the world. Our graduates are working throughout the world in all makeup disciplines. Graduates have been nominated twelve times for an Academy Award, winning three times, and several gradu-ates have been nominated for the Emmy and many have won (both day and prime time awards).

HistoryEI began in 1966 with a faculty comprised of makeup professionals and is still providing students with the most comprehensive and professional training available. These professionals provided the much-needed Makeup Artistry training in a school environment to contrast the system of apprenticeships practiced at that time. In January 1972, the School expanded its facilities, personnel and programs. The school has been both continuously licensed by the State of California, and accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges of Technology (ACCSCT). New and extensive courses were added to provide students with expert training in every major aspect of professional makeup artistry.

.

In 2005 EI increased its course offerings by adding continuing education for all professional makeup artists, and in 2007 two new programs, Studio Makeup Artist and SFX (Special Effects Makeup), were added to the course offerings. EI’s course offerings provide students with three different avenues to pursue beauty and fashion, comprehensive makeup artistry and special effects.

STUDENT ACADEMIC PROGRESS STUDENT ACADEMIC PROGRESS

Grading PolicyIn addition to the attendance requirements, students must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0, a C grade, in order to be considered a student in good standing. Individual courses, in compliance with satisfactory academic progress will be assessed at the 50% point of each course. Students must successfully complete each course before continuing on to the next one. Daily grades are recorded and based on instructor evaluations. Please see the following breakdown for the grading formula.

Grade Percentage Grade Point Average

A 90 – 100 4.00

B 80 – 89 3.00

C 70 – 79 2.00

D 60 – 69 1.00

F 59 – 0 0.00

I Incomplete 0.00

Grading Policy ExamsExaminations for every course include both a written theory exam and a practical skills test which requires students to demonstrate profi ciency in the skills and techniques covered in each course.

The following criteria is used to determine grades at the end of each course.

First Half of Training Course: Instructor Evaluation 20% (Includes projects) Class Work 20% (50% of the student’s grade is determined at this point) Mid-Term Exam 10% Instructor Evaluation 20% Second Half of Training Course: Class Work 5% Final Exam 25% Total 100%

TranscriptsTranscripts are issued to graduates upon completion of their training program and additional academic transcripts are available for a fee of $7.00. Duplicate diplomas and certifi -cates are $12.00 upon request. Fees must be paid in full for each portion of training for which the student requests transcripts. All fees must be paid in full to receive a diploma or certifi cate. Student academic fi les are maintained at this campus. Satisfactory academic progress standards are consistently applied to all students.

Student Academic Progress Student Academic Progress (SAP) is a way to track student achievement. Included in the school’s SAP policy are most importantly, attendance and grades. Students are required to maintain satisfactory academic progress according to the published standards established and enforced by EI and accepted by the Departments of Education and Veterans Affairs Department. All students are monitored to measure development and progress. Academic and technical perfor-mances are weighed in all courses, utilizing periodic written examinations, technical lab evaluations and standardized mid-term and fi nal exams. All exams and critiques are graded by the use of a 10-point scale. These points are then converted into grades.

In order to pass, the Student must achieve a score of 70%/C grade or higher. Homework and classroom projects are

graded and must be completed and presented prior to or on the fi nal class date.

Attendance PolicyEI is training students to become professional makeup artists, and towards this end, EI places enormous emphasis on attendance. Students are expected to be prompt and attend every class. Students must have a minimum of 80% overall attendance to be considered an active student in good standing. Students who fall below the 80% attendance rate are placed on probation. Students may not be absent more than three (3) times in any course. Students who have three consecutive absences are placed on probation, and students who have four consecutive absences, without excuse and without makeup classes, are terminated from the program. Students who must be unavoidably absent must make-up their classes and projects by making arrange-ments with the director of education to do so before the end of each course. Make-up sessions are usually held on Fridays. (See “Making Up Missed Classes” on page 32) Absences remain on students’ permanent records. Per-manent attendance records are extremely important as many producers and directors ask for copies of attendance records prior to hiring.


32 33

STUDENT ACADEMIC PROGRESS

Leave of AbsenceExcessive absences work adversely on students’ records, and if students have a medical or a personal problem to work out, they may take a leave of absence (LOA), ensuring that the time lost can be made up when the student returns. The personal problems for which students may take a leave of absence include, but are not limited to: a death of a relative, personal injury or illness or other special circumstances. For personal reasons students may take up to a two-month leave of absence. For medical reasons, students may take up to a four-month leave of absence. Students must request an LOA in writing. Students can request an LOA form from the Director of Education. Students who return to complete a course or program, for which they received an incomplete, shall meet all the standards necessary to receive a passing grade. Upon completion of the required standards, students receive a certifi cate or diploma in accordance with their original completion date.

Making Up Missed ClassesStudents who miss a class must make-up each class session in order to take the fi nal exam and complete each course. Make-up sessions can be arranged with the instructor and the director of education. Students can listen to lecture tapes, attend a make-up class session for lab and practice either in the morning or evening classes; most Fridays are open to students to make up class work.

All projects and assignments must be turned in prior to a fi nal grade and/or transcript being issued for each course.

Student RecordsStudent fi nancial records are maintained for ten years after students have completed their stay at this school. Academic records are kept into perpetuity. All fi les are secured in locked, fi re-proof and fl ood-proof cabinets in a secured location safe from casual contact and theft.

Probation and TerminationIf for reasons of poor academic progress and/or poor attendance, students may be placed on probation. Probation is a measure taken by the school that is designed to help students correct their behavior and/or academic defi ciencies. Probation remedies are meant to help students improve their performance. It is the school’s responsibility to identify student defi ciencies and take corrective measures to provide students with the best opportunity to improve their status in school and become successful and prepared to be professional makeup artists. The average probationary period is three weeks or six class sessions.

Termination is a measure taken by the school when a student has not successfully met the standards of the school. Some reasons for termination include: not improving performance once placed on probation, not adhering to the student rules given to students at orientation, being under the infl uence, consuming, selling or possession of drugs or

STUDENT ACADEMIC PROGRESS

alcohol on school premises, possession of a weapon on school premises, demonstrating disrespectful behavior to another student, administrators or faculty or for failure to meet fi nancial obligations.

Appeals ProcessStudents have the right to appeal any disciplinary action, but they must do so in writing. Students’ Written Appeals will be reviewed and evaluated by the director. The appeal must be received within 30 days of the initial action and provide all information relative to the event or situation resulting in the disciplinary action. The school director will reply in writing within 30 days. There are specifi c grounds on which a student may appeal a determination that a student is not making satisfactory progress. EI’s procedure allows for mitigating circumstances under which an SAP appeal would be approved. Those circumstances are: 1) the death of a relative of the student, 2) an injury or illness of the student or 3) other special circumstances.

Student ConductEI students are being trained to be professional makeup artists. EI expects students to behave in a respectful and professional manner at all times. Students are to follow the school rules listed in this catalog, cooperate with classmates, staff and faculty and abide by the Student Rules of Conduct given to students at the orientation and reinforced through-out the school experience.


3534

STUDENT RULES OF CONDUCT GRADUATION

Student Rules of ConductThe following rules are to be observed by students at all times. There are no exceptions to the following rules. We are helping students to establish and maintain professional skills throughout training, for both artistic and business disciplines.

• Attend all classes; if you must be absent, you must notify the school personally by calling.

• Always be on time for class and stay until class has ended.

• Come prepared; bring all supplies, note pads, pens/pencils, makeup, etc.

• Cell phones are not to be used in class nor are voice-activated bilingual or electronic equipment for any reason while in class. Messages can be left at the front desk.

• Notify the instructor if you are unable to attend class. Three absences from class is grounds for academic probation and four absences constitutes termination from school.

• Adhere to proper conduct and behavior in all classes at all times. This includes conducting yourself in a professional and appropriate manner.

• Comply with all instructor rules and policies at all times.

• Complete all assignments, including projects, on time as required by the instructor.

• Maintain satisfactory academic progress and no cheating for any reason.

• Abide by the school’s drug and alcohol-free policy.

• Abide by the school’s dress code: be well-groomed for class, no visible underwear, no “fl ip-fl ops”, no see-through clothing, no shorts, no short skirts, no “wife-beater” T-shirts and no mid-drifts or navels are to show at any time.

• Use the Student Lounge as a resting place and not the lobby/entrance.

• Always leave the classroom, work area and rest rooms clean and neat.

• Never bring children or friends (who are not models) to school.

• Complete course work, projects and exams on time.

• Always be respectful and courteous to faculty, staff and classmates.

Prior to GraduationPrior to graduation the student must complete the following:

• Achieve a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 (C grade) for each course;

• Satisfy all fi nancial obligations to the school; and

• Complete the enrolled course of study within 1.5 times the stated length

Students receive notice of their progress at the mid-term for each course. Students must maintain a passing grade of 70% (C), as a minimum, at each level of progress. Grades are posted at the end of each course.

Students whose grades fall at 69% or below will be placed on academic probation until the next assessment period. If students have not improved their grade point average by the next assessment period, they will be suspended from class. A student who has been suspended will be allowed to return the next time the course is offered, as space is available, and if the student agrees to comply with the school’s SAP.

If a student fails to complete any course or program, for any reason, the maximum time allowed to complete the missed requirements is 1.5 times the normal duration. For example: The Artistry of Makeup Program is 600-clock hours, taught over 96 class sessions, in 48 weeks (excluding breaks). Therefore, a student has a maximum of 72 weeks of school days to complete the program requirements to

receive a passing grade. Courses of 100-clock hours are held over an 8-week period, therefore, a student has a maximum of 12 weeks, in total, to complete the course. If a student fails to complete any course or program within the 1.5 period of time, and the student is not on a leave of absence, the incompletion shall be converted to a failure at the end of the period.

The only other exception to this policy is for an authorized Leave of Absence approved by the school director or director of education.

Students must submit a written request for a Leave of Absence prior to the period of the absence, and state the reason for the LOA, such as, medical purposes, family emergency, etc. An LOA can be arranged for a maximum of two months. If the reason for the LOA is for medical purposes the LOA may be as long as four months, but any medical LOA request must be accompanied by a doctor’s note, and a doctor’s note must be submitted allowing the student to return to class. At the end of the Leave of Absence, if the requirements are not met for completion of the course or program, then the leave shall expire and the incomplete status will be converted to a failure.

REFUND POLICY

Students have a right to a full refund of all charges, less the amount of the $75.00 registration fee, if the student cancels the enrollment agreement prior to, or on, the fi rst day of instruction. The amount retained by the school will not exceed the $75.00 (seventy-fi ve dollars) registration fee.

If a student withdraws from the program after instruction has begun, the student will receive a pro rata refund for the unused portion of the tuition and other refundable charges if the student has completed 60% or less of the instruction. The date of withdrawal is the date of cancellation and is determined as the date the student notifi es the school of the decision to cancel or the last date of attendance if the student fails to notify the school. The student shall be charged for all days up to and including the date of withdrawal. For example, if the student completes only 50 hours of a 100-hour course and paid $2,000 in tuition, the student would receive the refund of $1,000.

EI will also refund money collected from a third party on the student’s behalf, such as Veteran’s Benefi ts, Title IV, and/or WIA funds, if the school cancels or discontinues the course in which the student is enrolled or if the student drops out. If any portion of the tuition was paid from the proceeds of a third party, the refund will be sent to the lender or agency that guaranteed the funds.

Any remaining amount will fi rst be used to repay any student fi nancial aid programs from which the student received benefi ts in proportion to the benefi ts received. Any remaining amount will be paid to the student. All refunds are paid within thirty (30) days of the cancellation of the contract.
