Meritize And HAA Partner To Offer Innovative Scholarship

Helicopter and airplane flight training school Hillsboro Aero Academy reveals its expanded partnership with Meritize, a developer of funding solutions for skills-based education and workforce development. The program is now set to include a loan program for helicopter students. Previously, Meritize’s program had only been available to HAA’s airplane students. Under the Meritize Loan, credit can be given for merit and has the potential to improve their loan options if they share their military experience and academic history. Approved candidates can have access to a potential full deferment option during school in addition to being approved for certain additional products.
