___________________________________________
Do your schedules follow
pretty much the same format year after year?
Yes,
we have two semesters each year, beginning in
January, and July.
May I pay the deposit to assure my seat more in advance than two months as your website states?
Yes, a deposit holds your space (8 - 10 student max per class).
The deposit is refundable up to 2 months before the class begins.
What if I don't know which program I want to take?
You may begin with the Main Course or Main Course Intensive to see if this program and
The Language of CookingTM inspires you. You may also
take just the Foundation Course and choose a specific Pro Course training at another time.
When is the best time to visit the school for an interview?
Personal interviews are scheduled on a individual basis. We take
½ - 1 hour with each student who visits. Occasionally we group
people together when their schedules coincide.
Is SNC accredited?
No.
Can I receive a degree from SNC?
No. SNC is not in the educational system. We do
offer an internationally recognized certificate.
What kind of certification do graduates receive?
Certificates are awarded upon satisfactory completion
of the course. We do not give certificates if
students miss more than one demonstration class.
Classes may be made up within a year, unless other
arrangements are made.
Do you have financial aid or work-study available?
Yes, our financial aid is a standard loan. Work
study is available up to 5 hours a week.
Even though a student has been accepted for the
work-study program, there is no guarantee of how
many hours a semester they will have work.
Where do students live while studying at SNC? How much will it cost?
Many stay in private homes or in shared rental situations. SNC will assist in placing
students near the school in private homes or shared housing. The average monthly price
for a room in Boulder is $500. Louisville, Lafayette, and Longmont offer lower rates
and are within 15 minutes driving distance. Check out our links page for more specific info.
Do I need a car while in Boulder?
The mountains are easy to access. Buses take people to the ski resorts.
Bike paths are throughout Boulder and many people ride bikes, even in the winter.
With only a 3 mile radius, one can easily walk around Boulder.
The bus system is reliable and user friendly.
Does SNC teach nutrition?
SNC teaches energetic nutrition, not the science of nutrition.
Do you have a placement
program for graduates?
Yes. Students have access to requests for graduates:
internships, business opportunities, restaurant and private cooking.
Do you have an alumni program?
Yes. Our graduate web services package offers Personal Chef and Teacher Training
grads a forum to receive information and participate in on-going communication with SNC,
classmates, as well as business opportunities.
