Baking and Pastry ArtsSAIT
Baking and Pastry Arts combines two years of study with a required paid internship between the first and second years. The published tuition total includes the internship fee, while tools and some preparation costs sit separately.

Confirm the laundry charge before setting the final budget
SAIT's cost section gives two different laundry statements: an additional mandatory $188 per year in its preamble, and $250 annually included in tuition in the uniform instructions. The table below preserves the published tuition and fee total. Confirm the laundry treatment with the program before adding either amount.

Tuition and listed additional fees
| Period | Semesters | Tuition | Additional fees | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year 1 | 2 | $25,350.00 | $2,009.50 | $27,359.50 |
| Year 2 | 2 | $24,336.00 | $2,009.50 | $26,345.50 |
| Published program total | $53,705.00 | |||
The additional-fee column is already included in each total. The internship fee is already included. The conflicting laundry statements remain unresolved, so neither $188 nor $250 is added by this planner. The optional study tour, approximately $3,500, is not part of the required base budget.

Use the program contact to confirm the laundry amount and whether it is included. Keep the required internship separate from optional international travel when comparing the total commitment.

SAIT assesses the documents and course equivalents for education completed outside Canada. Demonstrating English proficiency does not by itself establish that your academic subjects meet the program requirements.
