Our Costs are Competitive

We're not just committed to providing the world's best culinary education; we're also committed to making it affordable. You might think CIA excellence costs more; in fact, our costs are competitive. Plus, we provide financial aid to approximately 90% of our students. Last year, freshmen received more than $25 million in financial aid in the form of grants, loans, scholarships, and Federal Work-Study.
