“Since the beginning of the admissions process I felt like everyone at the Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts was personally interested in my success. Halfway through the Culinary Arts program, I continuously built on the strong foundation of skills emphasized from the start. Our Chef Educator had exceeded my expectations and drove a standard of personal excellence. While each classmate brought their own strengths, we were encouraged to collaborate and push one another to achieve our daily goals. I knew I would have the support of an amazing network ensuring my successful career upon completion of the program. I am extremely pleased with my choice to attend Escoffier.”^*
