Do you dream of becoming a pilot yet feel constrained by the available flight training options?
The truth is: Flight training is a high-demand field but the career path is expensive and inflexible. Individuals find these barriers difficult to overcome. As a result, dreams are unmet or delayed.
At Indiana Wesleyan University, we believe that an aviation career is possible, so we have created a program that offers local, flexible flight training that prepares future pilots.
Indiana Wesleyan University addresses challenges by offering online aviation degrees with local flight training.
Students complete their flight training at a local airport while completing general education and major courses online.
The local flight school offers a professional, safe environment with the aircraft and instructors for you to succeed.
The degree plan allows you to become a Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) and earn income before you graduate.
The degree program grants access to financial aid to help cover the costs of the degree and flight training.
LIFT students train on state-of-the-art, eco-friendly training aircraft, on a fleet of Diamond DA40 and DA42 along with flight simulators built to achieve the most realistic cockpit environment. This innovative, cutting-edge program provides LIFT students with the skills they need to succeed, along with an option for a defined pathway to a career as a pilot with Republic Airways.

Additional fees may be required if a training improvement program is assigned.
