About this program
Cosmetology is an in person cosmetology program offered by Manatee Technical College at Manatee Technical College in Bradenton, FL. The reviewed source publishes 1,200 required hours, full-time.
Current MTC program, linked cost-sheet PDF, financial-aid, accreditation, application, inquiry, and tour sources support the exact course identity, 1200 hours, schedule, in-person practical training, qualifying-student aid, scholarships, COE accreditation, current action routes, costs, and a cautious Florida licensing pathway. MTC publishes resident and nonresident per-hour rates plus a combined estimated tuition, lab, and fees amount; no residency-neutral tuition total is represented. The linked revised cost sheet supports $649.50 combined textbooks/required attire and $76.50 licensing/exam costs. Total remains null because the webpage publishes $6,185.45 while the linked sheet publishes $6,331.95. Approximate month durations are evidence only, and no exact January/August cohort date is invented. The retained umbrella/route and organization-key relationships require controlled identity reconciliation.
