Fees Information

The Entry-Level Culinary Arts Certificate Program is available for the cost of $6400, which includes all tuition, classroom and lab materials, and uniforms. 

Fees must be paid by the assigned fee payment due date. Payment can be made with cash, check, credit/debit card.

Financial assistance and flexible payment plans are available to students who are eligible and qualify.

Financial Assistance

Other ways to finance your education include:

• Students may be eligible to receive private funding through DOE/Vocational Rehabilitation DVR. In these cases, DVR determines eligibility and authorizes the services as an educational program. 
• Students may be eligible to receive tuition assistance through a contract that Arc Broward has with Broward County. In these circumstances, Arc Broward determines eligibility for these services. 
• Students may cover the cost of their tuition privately or through financial assistance that they secure independent of Arc Educates.

Scholarships

Awards of $100 to $4,500 are available, based on merit, number of eligible students, and need. A number of individual donors and companies in the community have generously provided our students with scholarships. Students may request a Scholarship application packet from the Director upon enrollment. These scholarships require: 1.) Acceptance to an Arc Educates program; 2.) Completion of the Scholarship application packet; 3.) Verification of U.S. residency; 4.) Submission of the individual or family’s most recent completed tax return. Packets must be submitted to the Director at least two (2) weeks prior to the session start date.
