If English is not your first language, you are required to complete a short screening test during the induction period. If you do not meet the minimum level for your academic program, you will be required to participate in the Advance Learning Program which runs in parallel to your regular studies and supports your academic progression. Students who benefit from this program will be charged an additional fee.

Direct entry into the second year may be possible for students with appropriate qualifications. For the bachelor's degree, candidates should have a higher diploma in a relevant field and English level equivalent to TOEFL iBT 65 or IELTS 5.5 (bridging or complementary courses might be required).

Candidates with prior learning from other culinary schools or the workplace may also apply. All applications will be considered on an individual basis.
