Elizabeth City – College of The Albemarle (COA) is pleased to announce that the cosmetology graduates for December 2021 celebrate a 100% first-attempt pass rate for the State Board of Cosmetic Arts.  Students graduated in December 2021, with exams taking place in 2022.  College of The Albemarle recently received confirmation of all exam results for this class.  Students must pass the exam to obtain their license to be employed as a cosmetologist; however, they can graduate from their program before being licensed.
