What Could a Scholarship Mean for Your Future?

Unlike student loans, scholarships are considered financial gifts that do not have to be repaid. Our guide can provide helpful financial resources, including:

  • Merit-based scholarships, which evaluate a candidate’s culinary skill or academic achievement
  • Need-based scholarships, which can help lower-income students bridge the financing gap
  • Competition-based scholarships, awarded to some who compete in and/or win culinary competitions
  • Personal circumstance and location-specific scholarships, like scholarships for veterans, high school students, or other groups
