Flight School Student Housing
AeroGuard Student Resources
AeroGuard’s student housing and living stipends are additional resources we offer to students while they flight train with us. We understand relocating can be difficult or intimidating, which is why we want to ensure you receive the support you need to succeed in your training. Having that additional support and living close to campus allows students to get the most out of their training and focus all of their hard work and determination towards becoming a professional pilot.
Why Location is Important
Whether you’re relocating from out of state to attend flight school or are local to the area, you’ll definitely need a place to live. When scouting out your options, there are many things to consider from amenities and policies to location and cost. However, the most important of these is location. Proximity is key – not to local hotspots, but to your campus. AeroGuard provides student housing options within five miles of our Phoenix, Arizona and Austin, Texas campuses.
Why is this so important? Proximity to campus is extremely important to your academic progress as a student pilot. AeroGuard’s accelerated training programs require student pilots to be available for training 6 days per week. Every day at 6 p.m., student pilots are provided their schedule for the following day. In addition to scheduled missions, they’re expected to reserve the remainder of the 10-hour time block for studying. If another student’s flight gets cancelled, you could be contacted at a moment’s notice and be given the opportunity to complete a mission in their place. If you’re not close to the campus, you could lose out on that crucial opportunity.
Whether you choose one of AeroGuard’s student housing options or find housing on your own, keep in mind that proximity to your campus is an incredibly important part of your training.
Housing and Living Stipends
AeroGuard has worked diligently with their loan partners to find a solution for students. While some students choose to save up a cash fund to cover their living expenses during training, others have taken advantage of AeroGuard’s housing and living stipends. Though student housing is not available at every AeroGuard campus, each student can take a housing and living stipend as part of their financing, allowing them to cover their monthly room and board as well as additional living expenses. This stipend can be financed through your loan and is paid out to the students on a monthly basis.
AeroGuard’s Student Housing
AeroGuard offers student housing at our campuses in Phoenix, AZ and Austin, TX. In AeroGuard’s student housing options, students can live a dorm lifestyle with other student pilot roommates from their campus. This is a great way to not only get familiar with other students at the campus and create friendships, but to find great study partners. The apartments come furnished and are close in proximity to the campus with two students in each room. The monthly rent is fixed with all utilities included.
