Financing your flight instruction
To become a reality, your dreams of flying must be grounded in a solid plan to underwrite the costs of flight instruction. Beyond LaGrange College scholarships and financial aid, you may want to explore funding from private lenders. Several organizations offer programs tailored to aviation—and can provide help with the process. While LaGrange College does not endorse any lending institution over another, our current aviation students have used these lenders:
- Sallie Mae Smart Option Career Training Student Loans
- AOPA Flight Training Finance
- ZuntaFi Pilot Career Development Loan
- Stratus Financial Pilot Student Loans
As with any educational loan, we encourage students to explore all their options and make the best financial decision for their specific situation and needs.
