    I signed up for the esthetics program, in which this school did not follow through with. I paid all the money up front. I never received any education past getting a couple books. They have been contacted numerous times, and I just keep getting the run around. I was never provided with the internship I paid for, nor an education in theory to be able to take state board testing. I have spent over 8 thousand dollars and they are refusing to give me an education or a refund. I have proof of them claiming that I completed an impossible number of hours in the span of only 3 weeks. All of this will also be sent to state board. This school is completely fraudulent and is stealing money from people. They are claiming I completed my programs hours but I did not. I have proof I clocked no more than 10 hours in the online theory portion. I constantly reached out for help with NO help given to me. Now they are claiming I dont qualify for a refund because of how many hours I did but this is not true. I never completed those hours. I need a refund so I can pay for my education at another school and actually get my license!!!
