We’re Not in Temple City Yet: But We’re Coming!

Ask which programmes it offers, what the total cost covers, whether the programme is approved by the state, and what its enrolment agreement says if you stop part way. Get that in writing.

It depends on the state, and sometimes the city. Many states approve schools and require graduates to be licensed to practise. Ask the school for its approval and check it with the state board. On Pros Around, "Licence verified" means we matched the licence number to the board's record on the date shown.

Requirements differ by state. Ask how the programme lines up with your state's rules, and check with the state licensing board directly.

Some schools run a student clinic under supervision. Ask whether this is offered, how it is booked and how students are supervised.

Visit, ask about instructors, class sizes, how much hands-on practice there is, and where graduates go on to work. Ask for the contract in writing and read it before you sign.

Only customers who contacted a pro through Pros Around can review them, using a link that works once. Pros can reply but cannot delete a review, and reviews are never sold. An admin hides a review only if it breaks our rules, and the reason is recorded.

By the plan a pro has chosen, then a Featured badge, then review quality. A higher plan can place a pro higher; between pros on the same plan, reviews decide. Anything paid for is labelled.
