What it is and who needs it.
What the school bond actually covers
Minnesota licenses cosmetology schools through the Board of Cosmetologist Examiners, and conditions the license on a continuous corporate surety bond under Minn. Stat. 155A.30, subdivision 5. The bond is a student-and-public-protection guarantee: it backs the school’s obligations to the students who have paid tuition.
The amount is at least 10% of the school’s gross income from student tuition, fees, and other required institutional charges in the preceding year, and in no event less than $10,000. A new school computes the bond on its anticipated third-year gross income. Each school location needs its own bond — one bond cannot cover several schools.
The bond runs to the Board and to any person who may have a cause of action against the school. If the school fails to deliver what students paid for or otherwise violates Chapter 155A, a harmed student can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, the school repays the surety.
