Title IX & Sex Discrimination
New York Institute of Beauty is committed to providing an educational and working environment free from discrimination on the basis of sex.
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance. The School does not discriminate on the basis of sex in admissions, education programs, activities, or employment.
