ELEGANCE INTERNATIONAL

Introduction
Welcome to EI, Elegance International Inc., the first school of professional makeup school in the world, since 1966.
Our graduates are working throughout all makeup disciplines and throughout the world. Graduates have been nominated
nine times for the Academy Awards, winning three times, and several graduates have been nominated for the Emmy,
and many have won (both day and prime time awards).

History
EI has a long and proud history and continues to provide students with the most comprehensive and professional training
possible beginning in 1966 with a group of makeup professionals. These professionals had the intention of providing
the much-needed training in Makeup Artistry in a school environment, to contrast the generally practiced system of
apprenticeships at that time. In January 1972, the School expanded its facilities, personnel and programs. In the ensuing
years, the school received approval from the California State Department of Education and accreditation 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

Transcripts
Transcripts are issued to graduates upon completion of the Artistry of Makeup Program and additional academic transcripts
are available for a fee of $5.00. Duplicate diplomas and certificates are $10.00 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 certificate.
Student academic files 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. All students are monitored to
measure development and progress. Academic and technical performances are weighed in all courses, utilizing periodic written
examinations, technical lab evaluations, and standardized mid-term and final 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% or “C” grade,
or higher. Homework and classroom projects are graded, and must be completed and presented prior to or on the final class date.

Attendance Policy
EI 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 who have three
consecutive absences are placed on probation. Students may not be absent more than three (3) times in any course. Students who
have four consecutive absences, without excuse and without make up classes, are terminated from the program. Students who must
be unavoidably absent must make up their classes and projects by making arrangements with the director of education before the end
of each course. Make-Up Sessions are usually held on Fridays. (see “Making-Up Missed Classes” under Student Academic Progress).
Absences remain on students' permanent records.

31
CourseCatalog08 1/14/08 9:55 AM Page 32

STUDENT ACADEMIC PROGRESS

Leave of Absence
Excessive 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. 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.

Making Up Missed Classes


Students who miss a class must make up each class session in order to take the final exam and complete each course.
Make-up sessions can be arranged with the instructor and the academic director. Students can listen to lecture tapes
in the library and attend a make-up 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 final grade and/or transcript being issued for each course.

Student Records
Student financial records are maintained for ten years after students have completed their stay at this school. Academic
records are kept into perpetuity. All files are secured in locked, fire-proof and flood-proof cabinets in a secured location
safe from casual contact and theft.

32
CourseCatalog08 1/14/08 9:55 AM Page 33

STUDENT ACADEMIC PROGRESS

Probation and Termination


If for reasons of poor academic progress and/or poor attendance, students may be placed on probation. Probation is
ameasure taken by the school that is designed to help students correct their behavior and/or academic deficiencies.
Probation remedies are meant to help students improve their performance. It is the school's responsibility to identify
student deficiencies 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, 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; by not adhering to the student
rules given to students at orientation; being under the influence, consuming, selling or possession of drugs or alcohol on
school premises; possession of a weapon on school premises; for demonstrating disrespectful behavior to another student,
administrators, or faculty; for failure to meet financial obligations.

Appeals Process
Students 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.

Student Conduct
At EI 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 throughout
the school.

33
CourseCatalog08 1/14/08 9:55 AM Page 34

STUDENT RULES OF CONDUCT

Student Rules of Conduct


The 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, notepads, pen/pencil, 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. Two 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 flip-flops, 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 restrooms clean and neat.
• Never bring children or friends (who are not models) to school.
• Ask for a staff member's assistance if you want copies made.
• Complete course work, projects and exams on time.
• Always be respectful and courteous to faculty, staff and classmates.

34
CourseCatalog08 1/14/08 9:55 AM Page 35

GRADUATION

Prior to graduation, the student must complete the following:


• Achieve a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 (C grade) for each course;
• Satisfy all financial 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% or “C” grade, 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 exception to this policy is for an authorized Leave of Absence, approved by the school director or director of education
prior to the period of the absence, and by written request of the student. At the end of the Leave of Absence, maximum two
months, if the student does not return to school on time, the student will be dropped from the program.

35
CourseCatalog08 1/14/08 9:55 AM Page 36

GRADUATION

Prior to graduation (continued)


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 shall receive a certificate or
diploma in accordance with their original completion date.

Graduation Requirements
In order to successfully complete training at EI and be considered for graduation students must achieve the following:
• Have maintained 80% attendance throughout the program.

the $75.00 (seventy-five 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 notifies 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.

$2,000 /100 =50% 50 $1,000 $1,000

EI will also refund money collected from a third party on the student's behalf, such as Veteran's Benefits, 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 first be used to repay any student financial aid programs from which the student received
benefits, in proportion to the benefits received. Any remaining amount will be paid to the student. All refunds are
paid within thirty (30) days of the cancellation of the contract.
