This application (along with paid fee) is required and will need approval by the MN Health Department before any live model or permanent makeup service procedure can be performed.

During the course(s), live model practice is an option for students to choose if they wish (with paid fee). To sign up for the live model option, we recommend the student register no later than 30 days prior to class which will allow time for the state licensing and approval process.
