Financial Aid

making your future possible

financial aid options

Legacy Aviation understands the stress that paying for an education can create.
That’s why we connect our students with financial aid and scholarship options, so you can focus on what matters: getting hands-on training from industry professionals.

Financial aid is available to those who qualify. Students may qualify for federal aid in the form of subsidized and unsubsidized Direct Stafford Loans, PLUS Loans, PELL Grants, GI Bill and Scholarships.

Additional funding options are available to our students as well. All financial aid paperwork must be submitted to the Financial Aid Department prior to class start (unless an extension is granted by the Financial Aid Department) or the student may be placed on a cash payment plan. Please talk with your admissions representative for additional information.


TBA Credit Union is an educational partner, offering our students access to private education loans.
