Cosmetology - High School
Course Description
For 2025-2026 School Year Students
Bridgerland Technical College is participating in a statewide alignment project involving all Utah technical colleges. Alignment increased the time necessary in supervised services, requiring more one-on-one faculty assistance in the salon. This change, in conjunction with the program's popularity, created a need to move to a competitive application for high school seniors to enroll.
There will be an informational Parent & Student Open House on April 9th at 6:30pm in person or via Google Meet at the Brigham Campus in the conference room OR on April 22nd at 6:30 pm only via Google Meet. Meeting participation is strongly encouraged.
