Who this is for

Open to active LPA members (student, standard, or lifetime tier) enrolled or accepted in U.S.-based flight training. Five tracks span private pilot through ATP and type rating certifications, with a dedicated track for active-duty military, reservists, and veterans. Applying requires paid membership in the host organization; the application itself is free.

How to apply

  1. Read the full requirements on Latino Professionals in Aerospace (LPA)'s official page, including the membership requirement. Applying is free.
  2. Line up the slow pieces early: recommendation letters, transcripts, and any medical or student pilot certificate the provider asks for.
  3. Write the essay with numbers, not passion: name your certificate goal, your school, your hours so far, and exactly what this award covers. Build your plan so every figure in the essay is real.
