§ 515. Exceptions to examination requirements; present students and apprentices


Any person who has practiced or taught cosmetology under a certificate, license or permit, for not less than two years in another state, territory, or the District of Columbia, may secure the license required by this act without an examination or compliance with other requirements as to age or education: Provided, That the Board shall be satisfied that the standards provided for licensure under the laws of the place wherein the applicant's license was issued are the same or substantially the same as those provided for hereunder, that similar privileges are accorded persons licensed under the laws of the Commonwealth, that the applicant holds a valid license from the place wherein he is entitled to practice, and that all the terms and conditions prescribed by the Board are complied with by the applicant. Such application shall be accompanied by an affidavit of a licensed physician that the applicant was examined and is free from all contagious and infectious diseases, and the license fee required by this act. Students, upon graduating from licensed schools of cosmetology, may apply for, and receive from the department, a temporary license to practice in the field of cosmetology until the next regular examination held by the department under the provisions of this act.
