Funding & Internships

Fund Your Future.
Advance Your Career.

West Point Culinary Institute is built for working professionals. That means cost-effective tuition, an internship built into the program, and scholarship opportunities designed to remove financial barriers entirely.

How It Works

A Program Designed to Pay for Itself

The fourth month of every program is an internship — meaning students be in a real commerical kitchen completing their training. Combined with scholarship funding, many graduates finish the program with little to no out-of-pocket cost.
