How to Apply


The application for acceptance to the Cosmetology Program is a 2 STEP PROCESS.

STEP 1

1st  Week in June     -  Course beginning in Fall Semester
1st  Week in October -  Course beginning in Spring Semester

This will create a student ID number for you, which you must have to complete the next step.

Once you have filled out the application, there are two ways to get your student ID number:

(Please allow 48 hours for your RCC application to be processed before attempting to log in)  NOTE: if you do not include your social security number on your application, you will not be able to use this feature, and will need to go to Admissions with photo ID.
