Funding is a necessary component to flight training. Upper Limit Aviation recommends any student considering enrolling, either directly or through SLCC, secure funding prior to beginning their training.
Through ULA, alternative loans through financial institutions are available to those who qualify. ULA's staff is able to walk you through the steps required to obtain the necessary funding for your training.
Salt Lake Community College (SLCC) has the resources, through its financial aid department, to offer its students federal and state grants, federal student loans, federal work study, institutional scholarships and non-institutional scholarships in addition to traditional loans. For more information on how to apply for financial aid through SLCC or to make an appointment with a financial aid advisor please visit: http://www.slcc.edu/financialaid/index.asp
Salt Lake Community College (SLCC) is currently the only college program in the state of Utah, in association with Upper Limit Aviation and Cornerstone Aviation, offering VA approved courses for both helicopters and fixed-wing. Benefits are available under Chapters 30, 31, 33, 1606 and 1607. ULA's FAR Part 141 certificates, including its special curricula courses, have also been approved by the Veterans Administration.
Benefits, for those who qualify, include Private to CFII under Chapter 33, or Instrument to CFII under Chapter 30. Additionally, if a student has exhausted their current Chapter 30 benefits they may be eligible to enroll in SLCC, receiving another 12 months of benefits under Chapter 33.
Because this partnership is unique, the relationship between the VA, SLCC, and Upper Limit Aviation is constantly being updated and redefined. Please check our newsletter for the latest updates.
