Any input is appreciated!!!!
There are colleges out there that offer associate degrees in culinary rather than just a certificate. So theoretically you could go to culinary school AND get a degree. It all depends on what you would like to do. If it is becoming a chef I would recommend getting an associates degree in culinary art, and then if you wish to open a restaurant some day or become an executive chef I would try to acquire a bachelor in business over time. These are just my opinions mind you, I am a young student like you, so I have no experience to back up my advice.
