San Francisco, CA: The California Culinary Academy has reached a settlement of a class action lawsuit brought by students of the CAA over allegations of false advertising. Specifically, the suit charged that the school "misrepresented its 98 percent job placement rate, exaggerated its prestige in the industry and suggested that it had a selective qualifying process."
The settlement amount is for a reported $40 million, and is pending approval. Some 8,500 students who attended the CCA between 2003 and 2008 may be eligible for rebates of up to $20,000 each, if the settlement goes through.
