Each course has Pre-Entry Requirements, please refer to the individual courses for more information.

We would advise that you first achieve this requirement if it is set out in the Pre-Entry Requirements.

You will need to pass a SACAA aviation medical exam (done by a SACAA approved Aviation Doctor) and an English Proficiency test. These are included in your course fees.
