Try to do well in highschool now, because they give out HUGE scholarships and campus awards to people that got good HS grades. I didn't even go to a vocational school in HS, and I'm doing baking & pastry, and they gave me almost 16K for the four years, plus 10K just for this year. I can't stress this enough.

    JWU offers a great opportunity for a wide variety students who are looking to enter many different areas of work. They offer you an opportunity to get your foot into the food and hospitality industries, which are the two big majors offered at JWU.

    Johnson and Wales is the best culinary school! I am eager to wake up every morning and go to class, and then enjoy the beautiful Harborside campus for the rest of the day. With Gaebe Commons in the heart of downtown, it makes transportation more convenient and it has so many places to go explore!

    It's awesome here. I really love the fact that all of my professors so far are kind to their students. I haven't met a rude professor yet. They really make me want to attend class each and everyday. I have made so many friends with international students. And I really like it so far.

    This school is okay. Honestly, it's in a really really bad section of providence. The restaurants near the school are revolting, I walked into a pizza place once and the guy that came in behind me told me he just did heroin. The campus is beautiful, but the surrounding area is not safe at all. I would rate this school a 2 out of 5 stars.
