Description

The DeVore Freedom of Flight Scholarship offers college students an opportunity for initial flight training at schools with FAA Part 141 flight schools. The Freedom of Flight Scholarship was established to honor Dr. DeVore for his contributions to aviation at the local and national levels. His interests have been in promoting aviation education for our youth and providing them with opportunities to enter into dynamic and rewarding careers in aviation. The scholarship is open to students who must be admitted, and must be enrolled at the time the award is dispersed, to a University Aviation Association member institution with a Part 141 approved program. Community college and university applicants are encouraged. They must be admitted to, and undertaking, an aviation-related major. Applicants must submit a recommendation letter from a faculty member from a UAA member institution supporting their application for this scholarship. Students entering a collegiate Part 141 program as a freshman may use letters from other sources. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact UAA for more information.
