This is a no brainer. Go with CONFED! Everyone on here is so convinced that Confed is such the better option but no one elaborates. What are the actual reasons why Confed is better.

It is. Go to confed

I know that confed is a subsidized program, but it's still expensive and I'll have to do my multi or floats after. So if you know of any scholarships give me a shout!

Hope they can get it back on track. Dropping the IFR is not a good start.

Everyone in the program now seems to be enjoying it. Better than Sault!

For those who got accepted to confed what was your average? I was accepted to sault and on the waitlist for confed. I got a letter from confed saying they only start making calls off of the waitlist in the summer :/ I was also waitlisted at Confed with a 90.0% average. Seems they have a lot of appl...

81%

Group 3 IFR is basically useless if you're looking to get a job in IFR operations. Remember a group 1 gives you an IFR on all aeroplanes, you don't need the other groups... Thanks, that's what I wanted to know. But the multi check has no flight time requirements, if you have cat 3 and you get multi...

You assume correct.

Doesn't it cost more to go from no IFR to multi IFR vs. single IFR to multi IFR?

What would it cost to do IFR seperatly?

Don't you need single IFR for the upgrade to multi? You need single first, no?

Any idea why they dropped it?

How much would that cost? Now I'd need to do all the IFR time 40 hours + multi

Good news, I got into confed. Bad news, they aren't offering cat 3 IFR for the 2019 class.

I know how most of you love hating Sault, but they offer multi IFR. Not sure what to do know. Does anyone know how far behind Sault is at the moment?

Let me know what you think.
