Classes sell out quickly. What can I do?
Teen programs are in high demand and often fill very quickly. We strongly recommend registering as early as possible. If your preferred class is full, joining the waitlist is encouraged.

How do waitlists work?
Joining a waitlist places you on a notification list for that specific class, date, and time. If a seat becomes available, all waitlisted guests will be notified by email. Seats are filled on a first-come, first-served basis, and the first completed registration secures the spot. If you do not receive a notification, no openings have occurred.

What are the chances of cancellations?
While cancellations are uncommon, they do occur. Being on a waitlist provides the best opportunity should availability arise.

I really want my child to attend a class. Can you open another spot?
Our kitchens operate within carefully planned capacity limits. Due to space constraints and scheduling considerations, we are unable to increase class sizes or add additional seats.

How can I receive early access and notifications?

1. Download the CSCA App – This is the most reliable way to receive early access, special promotions, and important updates throughout the year. Download for free on Apple Store and Google Play.

2. Seasonal Notification Sign-Up – Each fall, we release a limited sign-up form for early notifications regarding summer teen programs. Submission is capped, so early registration is recommended.

I believe I signed up for early notifications but did not receive an email. What happened?
While we make every effort to ensure notifications are delivered successfully, email communications can occasionally be affected by technical factors outside our control, including spam filters, inbox settings, or provider restrictions. As a result, Cambridge School of Culinary Arts cannot guarantee delivery of notification emails and is unable to offer recourse for messages not received.
