Hello again,

I was wondering, have any of you heard about this school in NY? They have a Culinary Arts program that seems pretty nice. Also, their work/study plan is especially attractive for someone without that much money on his hands, like me. Please let me know what you've heard/know about this school.

Thanks

ICE used to be called Peter Kump's. Try doing on search here on both "ICE" and "Kump" and you will find lots of comments. Just be warned: one of the moderators here goes out with a staff member at ICE. So take what KyleW says with a grain of salt. No, seriously, all the comments on the school should be very helpful to you.

Thanks! I did find a lot of useful info in previous posts. I have one more question, though: Can I take the work/study program during school, or do I have to complete it before classes start? I'm asking this since that would mean I'd have to pay living expenses for an extra year

you have to finish the work study prior to entering the program.... assuming you qualify for it. i just went to an interview for it. you are evaluated on your work habits for 3 days and then put on a waiting list...

I heard that Suzanne! Yes, you do have to complete the Work before you get to Study.

Brown Sugar - I'm curious, who did you speak with at ICE?

i spoke with pia vallone. i guess she serves as the coordinator of the program. you can call the main switchboard and they will transfer you and set up an appointment.

good luck!

Pia is indeed the Work Study Coordinator. My girlfriend is an Admissions Counselor. She works with people who choose to pay up front for the program. If anyone needs any help with ICE let me know.

i just found out i was accepted into the work study program at ICE. i am on my way! ironically, after spending 3 days at the school (working), i'm kinda thinking about switching to culinary. i'm sure that's only temporary. LOL!

Hi I'm from California and I want to go to ICE because of the work study program. On average how long does it take to get into the work study program and how long does it take to complete it? Do they assign you a position into the culinary program right after or do you have to wait to get into that after you complete the work study?

Yes, ICE has many international students. They are well schooled in the ways of Visa's.

Hi Kyle!
My name is Giovanna and I'm from Brazil. I was considering the pastry program at ICE, do you know anything about it?

Thanks

The pastry curriculum @ ICE was developed by Nick Malgieri. They have a beautiful facility in NYC and can help with things like visas.
You can read more about it here: The Institute of Culinary Education: Culinary Arts Program Curriculum Outline
