Initial Contact

You and an admissions representative will speak over the phone*. The conversation will mostly involve your goals and expectations. You will be asked a series of questions to ensure your eligibility to apply to our school. Of course, if you have any questions at this time, they will be addressed. Once confirmed that both want to move forward, we will schedule an initial interview** (which includes the beginning steps to enroll and apply for financial aid).

 

*You are more than welcome to give us a call or walk in if you wish to speed up the process. Please keep in mind our office hours.

 

**If you choose to walk in, there may be an initial wait time, but assuming all is well to move forward, you can achieve the interview process the same day.

Enrollment

Dependent on eligibility and acceptance:

  1. You will sign an enrollment agreement and all necessary financial aid documents.

  2. You are now a student at Cortiva Institute

  3. You will begin payment of the initial registration fee of $150, and receive your uniform, student ID, and your kit*.

  4. You will begin classes on your chosen schedule and start date.
