(a)  An applicant shall receive credit for instruction taken in another state if the conditions set forth in this Rule are met.

(b)  The applicant's record shall be certified by the state agency or department that issues licenses to practice natural hair care.  If this agency or department does not maintain any student records or if the state does not give license to practice natural hair care, then the records may be certified by any state department or state agency that does maintain such records and is willing to certify their accuracy.  If no state department or board will certify the accuracy of the student's records, then the Board shall review the student's records on a case-by-case basis.

(c)  If the requirements of Paragraph (b) of this Rule are met, then the Board shall give credit for hours of course work and for mannequin and live model performances to the extent certified, up to the amount of credit that the student would receive for instruction in a school licensed by the Board.  If the certification includes only total hours and does not specify what performances have been completed, this Board shall not give any credit for performances completed as part of the out-of-state instruction.
