What to do next?

I finished my PPL, gained a lot of hours and I think I'm ready to move on. My end goal is CPL Multi IFR, with an ATPL eventually. What should I go ahead and do next? My plan currently is CPL next, then Instrument, and finally Multi Engine. Are there any requirements in terms of the order I do things...

Re: Sault and Confederation Applicants. Check here.

Does anybody here have the scoop on Conestoga? Not as fancy and as well known as Sault & Confed, but still a good program apparently (I've been told from recent grads and people currently in the program). It will also apparently get you to the major airlines. Wondering what you guys have to say abou...

Re: Sault and Confederation Applicants. Check here.

There is a lot of overlap between the colleges with early offers of acceptance. Each college may have 80 spots, but the same 80 people could get early acceptance to every college despite there being a few hundred spots to fill. The programs are not easy to upgauge so the colleges cannot start offer...

Re: Sault and Confederation Applicants. Check here.

Hey guys, so I contacted the program coordinator for Sault and she just got back to me a few minutes ago. She says that offers have not been sent out yet and they are still under the process of ranking applicants. No idea when they will send out offers, but whenever it does happen it will first upda...

Re: Are all aviation college diplomas equal?

As one who graduated from the Conestoga program, and has been bypassed on the new PML for folks who went to another program that are junior to me, I suspect they are not treated equally. Graduated with distinction, 4000 hours, ATPL. Hey, I got accepted to Conestoga's Fast Track program with an end ...

Re: Sault and Confederation Applicants. Check here.

Hey, don't accept it just yet. Colleges have quite a bit of time to send offers. I'll be waiting till the third week of February before I really start thinking about a decision. I know a friend who got an offer in mid February. He was an Ontario resident. I'll be waiting longer since I'm out of pro...

Re: Thoughts on BFC 2019?

Following this. Did my PPL at the BFC, great environment but aircraft availability is an issue. Although college students have their flights pre-booked well in advance on the online booking system, so I think it should be alright. From what I heard, the IATPL and 1 Year College program are very good...

Re: Sault and Confederation Applicants. Check here.

Seems a silly time to leave, you must have been close to the home stretch. There were a number of reasons. The strike definitely played a part. However the school is now know for falling behind. If you plan on going to the Sault, expect to spend four years there, instead of the advertised three. I ...

I have applied to numerous colleges. However, I am hoping to go to Sault College. Sault College claims that there are no minimum grades for acceptance into the program, and acceptance is based off of the Grade 12 math course, and Grade 12 english course, as well as a "first come - first serve" basis...
