[@louispark8999]

Could u tell me the differnece between geography aviation and science aviation?

[@sciencesmart901]

I'm doing A-levels of cambridge board. everyday is like, a torment of some sort because of the extremely hard syllabus. However, it always motivates me to think when I'll join uwaterloo with scholarships and flying a plane. The process will be indeed rough and curvy, I hv no idea what's gona happen but I just hope, that after all my hardwork, when I apply. I get acceted with scholarships. My parents don't mind me wantng to become a pilot and if they do I can always convince them. However, they're only going to agree if I'm on scholarships so I hope I do my best and get in. Anyone else who want to do the same thing, hope you get in! fighting!

[@experiencewaterloo]

The cost varies depending on a few factors. The most up-to-date information you’re looking for can be found here: uwaterloo.ca/aviation/future-undergraduate-students/apply/fees and uwaterloo.ca/find-out-more/financing/fees.

Doesn’t matter

[@experiencewaterloo]

Both programs are excellent choices for becoming a pilot!

[@stinkeyiphone3870]

CAN SOMEONE PLZ ANSWER!!! : Does this program get you your Private Pilots Licence (PPL). And what is the TOTAL cost of this program

[@experiencewaterloo]

You graduate with a commercial pilot licence. Information about fees is available at uwaterloo.ca/aviation/fees

[@dipankarchowdhury7217]

How much is it going to cost per year? As I m not so rich, are scholarships available?

Hi Dipankar, you can find our costs at uwaterloo.ca/aviation/fees-and-application . There are some scholarships available: uwaterloo.ca/future-students/financing/scholarships I hope that helps. ^AS

I am extremely interested in this program. I am currently in grade 9 and working towards my private pilots licence. How would the program change if accepted and having your PPL?

[@hellochels5077]

+Aviator172 If you have your PPL already you would go into advanced standing and start flight training with the second year class. All university classes would be taken with your fellow first years, but your aviation ground schools and flight training benchmarks would be alongside the second years

I'm recently in high school and I'm aiming to be a Pilot one day. I'm going to apply to water loo University (geography and aviation). I wanted to make sure that the course is for 3 years with a total cost of approximately $77,000, kindly correct me if I'm wrong. Waiting for your reply. Thank you:)

[@experiencewaterloo]

Tuition for Canadian students is currently about $7,200 per year (plus living expenses). Fees for international students are $35,000 to $37,000 per year (plus living expenses). The cost of flight training ($77,000 over 3 years) is in addition to the tuition fees. ^AS

[@asifjaved2699]

@@experiencewaterloo I'm a little confused over here. I'm from UAE so I'll be an I ternational student, so that means I'll be paying a total of around $112,000-$115,000 considering the fees and the cost of flight training?

[@experiencewaterloo]

@@asifjaved2699 Yes, that's correct Asif. Students graduate with a degree and their commercial pilot licence. You also need to factor in your living expenses. ^AS

[@asifjaved2699]

@@experiencewaterloo And can I ask why is it expensive for international students (35k) whereas Canadian students pay 7.2k. And also I wanted to make sure about the requirements in order to apply for the flight training (grade requirements)?

[@experiencewaterloo]

@@asifjaved2699 It's because the university doesn't receive any funding from the government for international students so they pay more of what it costs the university to deliver degree programs. Full admission requirements are listed at uwaterloo.ca/future-students/admissions/admission-requirements?program=geography-aviation and uwaterloo.ca/future-students/admissions/admission-requirements?program=science-aviation ^AS
