History and Development
The Chrysm Institute of Esthetics was established November 2004. We received our original certificate to operate by the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia in March 2005.
In 2007, the governor of Virginia signed into law the mandate for licensure requirement for the field of Esthetics. This change in law allowed the availability of licensure under the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR) Board for Barbers and Cosmetology for schools and practitioners. We received our Esthetics school license in November 2007.
The institution was accredited by NACCAS in September 2012 and approved by the federal Department of Education in March 2013. The Chrysm Institute of Esthetics received its recertification Certificate to Operate an Institution of Postsecondary Education by the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia in March 2014. The Chrysm Institute of Esthetics is also referred to as The Chrysm Institute.
In 2022, the institution opened its first branch campus in Hampton, VA and received its DPOR Spa and Esthetics school licenses and SCHEV Certificate to Operate. The Hampton branch campus is currently in the accreditation application process with NACCAS. After accreditation is granted, the branch campus will utilize the same Program Participation Agreement with the Department of Education for approval for Title IV financial aid. Until the branch campus is accredited, out of pocket installment payment plans are offered to students.
