Every day is filled with TONS of material, so every day you are learning brand new techniques and methods. Because the class sizes are relatively small at the Culinary Institute of America, the Chefs/Professors are able to help each student more towards his or her individual needs, which is much appreciated.

    This school will honestly change your life as well as your perspective on the entire culinary world. You will grasp new ideas and techniques like you never even thought you would. The one thing you need at this school is passion; with enough passion you will have the drive to make it through and become one of the best.

    Great school to learn the classical French Techniques. Education value and reputation has declined over the last couple years. Very well known and recognized education.

    The resources here are plentiful; if you want to know anything there is at least ten books here on the subject. The chefs here are true professionals and experts in their respective fields. The education here is the most extensive but at a fast pace; which is in short the definition of our industry.

    The Culinary Institute of America has the best chefs from around the world. You are constantly learning about food, even when you sit down to each lunch. It is an amazing experience that no other school will give you.

    The educational program at CIA Greystone is phenomenal in standard compared to other programs offered in the country. The program prepares students for the business, professional expectation, networking, and skills that rank the students above other contenders when applying for jobs. However, one thing that needs improvement is the dorm; it needs more funding and attention to make the outside experience at the school more enjoyable.
