The International Aircraft Dealers Association (IADA) is accepting applications for scholarships from undergraduate and graduate students who plan to seek careers in business aviation. Its scholarships—totaling between $1,000 and $5,000 each—are funded by the IADA Foundation and are available to students attending 21 participating universities and colleges.

“The IADA business aviation scholarship program benefits university students seeking a career in business aviation, specifically within corporate aircraft sales, marketing, finance, legal, and insurance disciplines,” said IADA executive director Wayne Starling.

Applications are available online and require a keycode available through the financial aid officers of participating schools. Undergraduate and graduate applicants must be full-time students (minimum of 12 credit hours a semester for undergraduate students) and have a 3.0 minimum cumulative grade point average.

The deadline for applications is September 1. Notification of scholarship awards will be made through a school’s financial aid office no later than November 30.
