They cover the first $15k of monthly repayments for some students, then you take over from $15k. I dont think they are offering it to everyone.

 

Who is that $15k offered to?

 

Thanks! I might only stay the night before so I might just have a backpack. What were people wearing to the interview when you were there and what would you recommend to wear? I plan on wearing a suit but I don’t know if that’s appropriate or not.

 

I have no idea the criteria, I know quite a large percentage of those I have spoken to seem to have been offered it.

 

Why is there a question and all of these games over who is being offered what? Everywhere flight training is a per hour cost. It doesn’t seem to matter who you are. Get educated about this industry. I have posted ad nausaem on these forums about this.

 

Because this isn’t the same as everywhere else. A lot of the loan assistance stuff comes from grants by the city of Indy paid either to Republic or LIFT (I’m not sure of the exact details) which then passes it on to the students. The $15k for initial loan assistance seems to be offered to everyone at the moment but the feeling I got was that it was limited to the first few initial classes. Maybe the first year of classes? I’m not sure as they didn’t specify and I’m not even sure they know exactly yet since they (LIFT) aren’t the ones controlling it. Regardless of if you pay cash or if you use their loan provider you are eligible for the $15k in loan assistance.

I’m waiting to get the details in writing as so far I’ve only discussed it in person and over the phone with them. They said I should be receiving an email about it shortly.

 

I wore a suit and didn’t feel out of place. One of the other guys in the testing room had one on too and the other one was business casual. If you look up thread you’ll see where I already asked the same question before my interview.

Right now I’m scheduled for a class next May but they offered for me to start as soon as November if I wanted too.

 

Thanks! Hopefully I’ll get offered it.

 

Thanks, a suit it is! Out of curiousity what was the guy wearing business casual wearing?

 

When I was there, someone was wearing Khaki’s and a polo. I went with a suit as I viewed it more as an interview for a first officer position down the road.
