can a cosmetology school hold your transcripts.........?
can a cosmetology school hold transcripts in lieu of money you owe the school? I do not yet owe on my financial aid/loans but they access an overtime charge of 10 $ per hour after our graduation date. I did not receive any further instruction from staff after my graduation date I pretty much cleaned their school and did odd stuff around the school. I am wondering if this is legal? This is not a private school, they do have an entrance exam, which they started after I was already a student. I work for the school now so I do not want ot have to sue them, but I dont want to feel like I have to play dirty to get my transcripts this was over a 20k investment, I just want to obtain my license. also ... if I file for bankruptcy would they have to give me my transcripts because it is technically a debt to me?

Schools typically hold back transcripts until all fees are paid. It is legal and done by all schools. If you feel that some fees you do not owe, you need to talk to the school about it.
If you received aid from FAFSA to go to the school, going bankrupt will not relieve you of the debt and they still would not have to give you the transcripts.
It seems difficult, but many students do not pay their debts to schools and the school will never get it unless they hold the transcripts.
