Culinary Grants and Scholarships and the organizations that award them

If you are thinking of going to culinary school or the restaurant and hospitality field, check out these various organizations that are offering grants and scholarships. Some culinary schools are expensive and you may need help with your tuition.

Check with the schools you are interested in attending to see what they have to offer. Most likely a representative from the school will contact you after you fill out the request more information forms and give you a good idea of what's available, but be sure to also check with the schools Financial Aid office. They are there to help.

Be sure to read these articles posted on my web site & blog:

Below you will find a large grouping of organizations who award grants and scholarships to students interested in getting into the culinary and food service industries. This list is not comprehensive and I will be adding more as I find them. If you offer a culinary grant or scholarship, please contact me with your information.

    Can you have graduated for a culinary school already and still qualify for school tuition assistance or loan assistance with a scholarship or grant? or do you have to be a current student?

    Hello, I was wondering if there are any good scholarships that are for baking/pastry schools. I am 17 and graduating this year (5/12/13) and will be attending school next year (2014) to take a year off for work. If there is anything at all, please let me know!

    I notice that your list is listed alphabetically but stops at N. Does it go on and I just don't see it. I'm from Ohio and was wondering if there were any in Ohio specifically. Thanks!

What Do You Need To Know to Get Into Culinary School

making of chefAs the Reluctant Gourmet, I have never been to cooking school, but I keep telling myself it's never too late. The best way for you to learn more about becoming a chef is to visit my collection of culinary career articles that look at a variety of subjects a new culinary student or hospitality management student would be interested in knowing. Here you will find articles, books, school resources and many other useful resources.

Also, try reading as much as you can about going to cooking school and what it is like to be a professional chef. One book I highly recommend to anyone thinking about culinary school is, The Making of A Chef, by Michael Ruhlman. It will really help you understand what you may be getting yourself into. For a complete list of Books For Cooks.
