Following is a breakdown of where your money is going:

The Italian Culinary Academy
        Certificate Course  (28 weeks inc. 18 weeks of study in Italy)
                                                                                $46,000

The ICA awarded me a small scholarship from the Italian Trade Commission for $5,000 and a James Beard Foundation Scholarship for $5,000. But, that's still far from what I need.
