I am currently a student on the 6 month intensive French Culinary Arts program and I really love it.

Being British-Lebanese (I’m an international student), I had initially planned to go to culinary school in London. However after visiting and looking at multiple courses all over the UK I just knew that this was the place for me. The course is the perfect amount of time for a career changer like myself not feel like I’m wasting time. The facilities are the equivalent if not better than anything you’ll find in the industry, the chefs are admirable in both their skill and their professional demeanor, and the vibe is one of enthusiasm and support.

Don’t be fooled, this course is no joke. Get ready to work hard and learn about every aspect of food and the industry that surrounds it. Here we are taught in both practice and theory of all the different cooking techniques, how to apply them to french cuisine, and how to practice this knowledge in the professional world. Plus we get some really great visiting chef demos (often because the chefs are alumni. Perks.) and unique volunteering experiences like the New York Culinary Experience and The James Beard Awards. The opportunities and support of the school and its wonderful student and careers services teams are there for us during our time on our course, as well as after we graduate.

This is the place to go if you want to learn how to work in the food industry and still love food. I will seriously miss it when I graduate.

One of the most scams in NYC they promise you great things. And plus the chefs on level 5 and 6 they treat you worst then the US army. Plus wen you go in for a job in any top restaurant they don’t care if you have a culinary art certificate from the French culinary institute . They mostly care how many years of experience you have in the profesional Kitchen. You better of going straight to a restaurant start as a prep and learn in there then going into debt of more then 50k$ if you can’t get a good job all of that will start killing you specially your credit score. You better off going to college then spending money in this institute. I’m college you will not go I to that much amount of debt at least farsa and scholarships will cover your college tuition. If you fail a level you have to pay huge amount of money to retake that level. You better learning from YouTube all there culinary techniques. Anyone can cook you just have to put the love into the kitchen and you don’t need this institute in order to cook good food.
