Esthetician in Georgia
Georgia State Board of Cosmetology and Barbers
Georgia licenses estheticians through the State Board of Cosmetology and Barbers, with the written theory exam delivered by PSI using NIC content (Scientific Concepts and Esthetics Practices domains). The official board FAQ states the exam must be passed in English — Georgia does not offer the written esthetics exam in Spanish or other languages. An esthetician license needs 1,000 school hours (or a 2,000-hour apprenticeship); Georgia has a single esthetician license and no separate “master esthetician” tier. NIC reports a scaled score rather than a published percentage, and Georgia's own bulletin does not publish the exact item count, so we do not quote a pass % or a made-up question count. Our multilingual practice questions are a study aid; the real Georgia exam is in English.

State rules and fees change often. This table shows only facts confirmed from an official board or vendor source on the date noted; anything unconfirmed is marked “to confirm.” Always verify current requirements with your state board or its testing vendor before you register. Our practice questions are a study aid and never imply your state offers the exam in a language it does not.
