Financial Aid

« on: October 04, 2006, 06:54:58 pm »

Hey everybody whats up? My dream is to be an airline Pilot, and I am ready to stop dreaming and start flying but like others I face the financial problem. I am able to secure finances up to private pilot, but thats half the dream. What help is available to international students seeking financial aid. I have also made the neccessary deposits to the school I wish to attend ( Regional Airline Academy), but just need to secure the remainding funds, also I have done the neccessary security checks with TSA and went to the American Embassy here in my country. What help is available to us. Thanks in advance for your advise.

Sugeest you speak with the flight school you plan on attending. Once you make it to the states, there are financing options available, but the problem is that you are a foreign national. I do not know of any financial institution that will lend money without having credit in the US. I sold a house to a German national that worked with my wife for Seimen's Automotive. He was in the US for a few years and needed paperwork from Seimen's and a co-signer (I think that one of the local executives signed) since he was in the US on a work visa.

Good luck, and I hope that you get everything straightened out!!
