Ill. Admin. Code tit. 68, § 1175.340 - Final Examination
a) A school
shall require each candidate for graduation to pass a final examination that
tests the student's theoretical and practical knowledge of the curriculum
studied. A "final examination" shall include a single final examination or
multiple examinations as determined by the school.
b) The practical examination shall test the
candidate's skills in the following areas:
1)
Hair cutting;
2) Sanitation;
and
3) Shaving.
c) The examination shall be
administered by the uniform application of standard performance criteria
established by the school for each skill area. The standard performance
criteria for each skill area shall be delineated in the examination records as
specified in subsection (h).
d) A
passing score of 75 or greater shall be required on both the theoretical and
practical portions of the final examination or another state's passing
grade.
e) The school shall allow
each candidate for graduation at least 3 attempts to pass the final
exam.
f) The Division may monitor
the administration of the final examination:
1) As a result of a complaint
received;

sampling;
3) To collect data;
and/or
4) When the failure rate on
the licensure examination for school graduates is greater than 25%.

records of each school's graduate failure rate on the licensing examination.
The records shall reflect only first examination attempts for each graduate.
The Division may review the records on an annual basis to identify those
approved schools that have an average annual failure rate greater than 25%. An
average annual failure rate greater than 25% is grounds for school
disapproval.
