Scholarships

Every year Aircraft Dispatch Academy awards or donates several scholarships to prospective students.  We offer several "in-house" scholarships as well as several that we donate to our external partner organizations at the ADF, WAI and NBAA, which are awarded at their annual conventions.

Our scholarships range from full tuition, half tuition, and FAA test fee awards.
