| Aviation Scholarships | Colorado | Yes | $2,500 | We at the Colorado Pilots Association recognize the need to continue growing the population of pilots in Colorado. To that end, we have taken a two pronged approach, offering scholarships for Private Pilot, and Certificated Flight instructor training. Up to two scholarships annually are available in each area, valued at $2500 each. We shifted in 2020 from academic to flight training scholarships, in hopes of building the number of pilots in our great state. While we struggled to attempt to include financing all aspects of flight training like FAA exams and examiner’s fees, in the end we streamlined the process, intending to fund strictly aircraft (and possibly simulator) rental, and Instructor fees. We recognized that our awards, while substantial, are not complete funding for the certificates sought by our applicants. The deadline to apply for any scholarship is July 1st annually. The scholarship committee will review all applications, certifications, and letters of recommendation in early July. We will contact applicants in mid to late July to schedule a virtual interview, either via telephone or video conference. The awards of scholarships could happen as early as the end of August. Funds will be deposited in the accounts of the winners at their flight school. Scholarship winners, and guests are invited to attend our annual meeting in November, and the winner and a guest are invited to attend our annual holiday party in December.
