Apprenticeship Application

To apply for admission, a prospective student must complete an application to Columbus State Community College. The student will be notified of acceptance.

However, a Supplemental Application is also required for acceptance into the Chef Apprenticeship itself and should be directed to Hospitality Management at the college. The supplemental application must be accompanied by two letters of reference, a 200 word essay on why you wish to become a chef, a high school transcript or GED certificate, and a college transcript (if applicable). Deadlines for completed applications are May 15 for the class to begin Autumn quarter and November 15 for the class to begin Spring quarter.

Those whose applications are complete are then scheduled for interviews with the ACF Columbus Chapter Apprenticeship Committee prior to the beginning of the program. Preference will be given to individuals with work experience in the foodservice industry. The applicant must complete the Columbus State Community College COMPASS Placement Tests (Math, Reading, and Writing Skills). These tests must be completed by all applicants except those with college transfer credit in mathematics and/or English.

Students will not be accepted into the apprenticeship program until any required developmental courses indicated by the placement tests are satisfactorily complete; therefore, early application is recommended. Those selected for the apprenticeship program will interview with prospective employers; however, work placement cannot be guaranteed by the College or the ACF Columbus Chapter.
