This school is a joke. I went and applied for the master Barber program when I called they said that there were three seats left in the class for Feb 5 2018 that if I got in and registered that class would start on the 5th of February. I show up I register I bring all of my paperwork and I passed the exam and then I have an interview with Mr. Brandon. I tell him that I've been in the beauty industry for over 25 years and that I owned my own hair salon and we even did NY fashion week for a famous designers show but I never had the time to be able to go get my license to cut. He says wonderful come to the orientation on the 28th of January and your classes will start on Monday February 5th. I show up at the orientation and for 21 seats in a class there's like at least 40 people in the orientation. We meet everybody in the school they tell us how this is a $10,000 program if we went anywhere else meantime you don't even get your own tools you have to use their used equipment that's been sitting there for years pribably Conair from drugstore and then they proceeded to tell you that they're about to lose the program because the people that graduate never come back to tell them if they got their license or they got a job. So no statistics for the state if people ever pass license or get job. I had to sit there from 10 in the morning until 3 in the afternoon till they finally called my name because they had to do interviews all over again. They made people lose their work for the day miss their doctor's appointments like I did because I did not want to leave so I get interviewed. How unprofessional!! They don't even know how to interview you're interviewing for going to school to learn how to be a barber. This is vocational training no prior experience should be required. There has to be no experience necessary to learn a trade. The questions they asked really had nothing to do with barbering or the beauty industry at all they had to do with customer service and what do you do if a customer is not happy. They asked what will having you in the class benefit other students? I said over 25 years in the field and owned my own salon student can get knowledge from me that is the business side. That's just as important as the skill of barbering. They asked that alone should tell you what type of place this is and then they told me after my interview that I have to wait till the following week that I'll be getting a call if I made it or not. So I get a call the following week from somebody else in the office at SUNY Bronx that tells me that there were other people more qualified than me and that I wasn't chosen for the class!! Are you serious are you seriously serious?! No wonder they're about to lose their program because the people that they pick are just their to waste their time and then they talk about it being a $10,000 program!! Ha ha!! Listen everyone do yourself a favor go to Access VR website and look up the Arojjo school there in Tribeca there Barber program is $12,000 and owned by a famous celebrity hair stylist and Access VR will pay the whole tuition which includes a kit that cost $1,600. THAT'S A REAL SCHOOL. I got my viucher snd start March 28th. When I'm done i can work in $55 and up barber shop. YOU DO THE MATH. If you want to work in a barber shop doing $12 haircuts and learn with conair clippers then maybe this will be the place for you or maybe if you just got out of prison and you've been cutting hair and need to get your license maybe this will be the place for you, you will be cutting hair on people from shelters in bronx all day long. Any other barber school in Manhattan is less than $5,000 for their program so I don't know who they think they're kidding saying theirs is worth $10,000. Maybe they didn't want a gay white man in their school who knows.Like I said this place is a joke and if they lose their funding from the state for their programs I could totally see why they deserve it.
