Pilot Training Financing Options
Financing Options
As a leading flight school in Mesa, the team at the UND Aerospace Foundation understands that pursuing a career in aviation can be a significant financial investment. That's why we strive to ensure our students understand their options when it comes to acquiring financing aid to help them achieve their dream of becoming a pilot.
We want to first mention that the journey to secure financing for flight training should be a carefully considered process and not necessarily a quick decision. Borrowing money is oftentimes both a personal and family decision. Each individual needs to consider their own circumstances carefully. While not all families have the financial capability to provide assistance or act as co-signer, it may be worth considering.
We also understand that assistance from family may not be an option for everyone. Additional options may include working with your personal financial institution or perhaps even your local Credit Union. Often, the relationship you have with your financial representative can be helpful in securing a personal loan to finance your flight training.
Get a Sallie Mae Student Loan
Another attractive financing option is a loan from Sallie Mae. Sallie Mae is a leading provider of private student loans and has been helping students finance their education for over 40 years. At the UND Aerospace Foundation, we have partnered with Sallie Mae to provide students with access to financing options that may suit their financial needs. Applying for a loan through Sallie Mae is fast and easy, with no application fee. Here are some of the benefits of a Sallie Mae loan:
