What defines a 'School' for cosmetology training?

• A. Any premises wherein cosmetology is taught
• B. A licensed college offering a cosmetology degree
• C. A private beauty salon offering training
• D. A community center hosting short courses

Answer: (A)

Focus on where instruction happens. A cosmetology school is defined by the location where cosmetology is taught, not by the type of institution or its name. Any premises used for teaching cosmetology—whether a dedicated beauty school, a college, or another venue that offers approved training—qualifies as a school because the defining feature is that teaching occurs there. The other options are too limited, naming only specific kinds of places (a college, a salon, or a community center) and therefore don’t capture all locations where cosmetology instruction can take place.
