Scholarship applications opened September 5, 2023, with awards ranging from $2,500 to $14,000 for primary flight training, advanced ratings/certificates, aviation maintenance, and more.

  • Open to AOPA members who are U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent legal residents.
  • Some scholarships also require applicants to meet additional criteria.
  • Scholarship applications will close February 9, 2024, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern time.
  • You need only submit one application that will be automatically considered for all scholarships for which you are eligible.

The number and amount of all scholarships will be determined by donor funding, which may not be finalized until immediately before awards are announced. Scholarship applicants will be considered for all scholarships for which they qualify.
