Financial Assistance
The Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) is a needs-based program designed to help Ontario students cover the cost of post-secondary education. Funded by the federal and provincial governments, OSAP is intended to promote equality of opportunity for post-secondary studies through direct financial assistance for educational costs and living expenses. These interest-free loans are intended to supplement your financial resources and those of your family. The majority of students apply for loan assistance via the OSAP website. Students can also print the application booklet through the OSAP website.For more information, please visit Financial Services/Awards.
Graduate Opportunities
Employers in aviation are increasingly seeking pilots with post-secondary education, as well as the required licences.- Graduates from the helicopter option will find initial employment in ground operations, teaching ground school, and dispatch positions to gain detailed knowledge of their company's operations. Later, once they have moved into more permanent flight positions, pilot graduates most often begin flying in charter work, crop spraying, and ride operations. They may permanently stay in those fields or, after more hours are acquired, they may move on to a variety of different sectors such as lidar survey work, flight instruction, aerial firefighting, heli-logging, resource exploration and support, aeromedical, photography and film, heliskiing, corporate transport and off shore oil support.
- Graduates from the airplane option can find initial employment with a variety of air operators, typically flying small single and multi-engine aircraft or working on ground crew (some graduates choose to pursue a flight instructor rating or a float plane rating to increase their opportunities). Building flight hours will allow graduate pilots to eventually fly larger, more complex aircraft.
- Pilot employment prospects are excellent and many major carriers are predicting a shortage in the industry. Porter Airlines is offering Conestoga graduates a pathway to employment through a mentorship program that will create opportunities for a first officer position (Destination Porter). Qualified graduates will also have the opportunity to apply for the Jazz App which is an application pathway to training as a first officer at Jazz Airlines. Other major airlines are also considering pathway programs for Conestoga Aviation graduates.
On average, 86% of graduates from the last three years (2015 to 2017) found employment within six months of graduation.

Pathways & Credit Transfer
Conestoga pathways enable students to build on their academic achievements in order to earn a degree or additional credential. Pathways are formed through agreements between Conestoga programs or partner institutions. View the transfer agreement opportunities for this program.Often applicants have earned credits from another college or university that may allow a student to be granted advanced standing or exemption. Learn more about credit transfer opportunities at Conestoga.
Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR)
Conestoga recognizes prior learning of skills, knowledge or competencies that have been acquired through employment, formal and informal education, non-formal learning or other life experiences. Prior learning must be measurable at the required academic level and meet Conestoga standards of achievement for current courses. Challenge exams and portfolio development are the primary methods of assessment. Other methods of assessment may be available depending upon the nature of the course objectives. Successful completion of the assessment results in an official course credit that will be recorded on the student's Conestoga transcript. PLAR cannot be used by registered Conestoga students for the clearance of academic deficiencies, to improve grades or to obtain admission into a program.Learn more about PLAR.
