MSJC will offer a unique experience where genuine relationships can be built on students’ accessibility to faculty and network among classmates and peers. This collaborative approach is extremely important when it comes to flight training and career placement. It means more diversity in training experiences combined with the personal mentorship of highly-experienced instructors from the aviation industry.

Although you could earn all the same FAA certificates by going to a reputable stand-alone flight school. There are big advantages to making MSJC a part of your aviation training:

  • You are able to count your ground school training towards the college degree which saves you time over having to earn a degree separately from your flight training.
  • The Aviation Science A.S. degree will allow you to move forward within your career. Even if you decide that you want to eventually earn a bachelor’s degree, the A.S. degree may allow you to begin your career sooner.
  • You will be a safer, more effective pilot and flight instructor with the knowledge you obtain in the aviation academic courses that go above and beyond what the FAA requires for certificates.
  • You will be surrounded by students who are on the same path as you, who help one another succeed, and will be the beginning of a critical network of contacts that will enhance your learning, create long-lasting friendships, and establish a career.
