Subsidized flying at Seneca College

[FA28 guy]

Just curious if anyone knows if Sececa Is charging its student for flying yet.

Heard this was the first year. Total to be around $50,000 ie like private school. But that is just what I heard.

How come they are charging now?

Didn't someone post the fees? Was it deleted?? Why would a mod delete it? We can't delete our own messages, can we??

Thought (s)he said it would be 3k a semester now??

Or am I delusional?

(***edit

Ah, we can delete our posts, it's the big X in the right corner.. Why we have people writing "double/triple" post instead of just deleting is beyond me.)

*** Wooohoo. I'm sane..

You can only delete your post if someone has not replied to it. In other words only the last post can be deleted.

Check the Universities/Colleges/Flight Schools section in the Forum Index. The information is there.

How many flight hours per semester do the students usually do?

N2...

Hard to say...depends on weather...and availability of instructors.

But total time a student ends with is about 200 hours....commercial multi-IFR.

Things changed recently at Seneca. The program became a degree program and that's why the cost has gone up. I'm not sure exactly the tuition, but the flying is still subsidized. Also, they started changing the flight syllabus to the Integrated Commerical license. I think the final flight time is around 180hrs total. Part of the idea of the ICPL is to give the students more dual time, as well, as have the students step from simple single engine a/c, to complex single a/c, to Multi.
That's what I know....

I wish my college program was subsidized. It cost an extra 10g for that piece of paper.
