Our checklist will help you keep track of what you need to do for the enrollment process.
Financing Flight School
The cost of flight training can vary depending on your prior experience, the type of training you’re pursuing, and how far you plan to go in your aviation journey. FLT Academy advisors are here to help you understand your options. We’re happy to provide custom training estimates, explain program structures, and answer any questions you may have about the training process.
However, please note that FLT Academy does not offer financial advising. If you plan to finance your training, you’ll need to speak directly with your chosen lender. Only the lender can provide accurate information about interest rates, loan terms, approval criteria, and repayment plans. We strongly encourage all students seeking financing to schedule an appointment with their lender to fully understand their options.
