Requirements and ways to find your funds

There're many ways to be a pilot.
1. Join the military one~
2. Self sponsor (to be a commercial 1)
3. Join it under airlines
4. Sponsorship by any societies

To be a fighter pilot, check out the advertisement on the newspaper from time to time.
(The short form is TUDM.)

For self sponsor, you may need to check out the fees with the academy.
The requirement is as simple as... having credit on your original SPM for English, Maths and Physic(Science) subjects; Holding class 1/2 medical result; Having the approval letter from DCA.
Thereafter, you may contact the academy that you wish to join, start your "entrance test" with them and confirm for your enrollment. Nowadays, art students are welcome to be a pilot. Some how we will say as... FAMA (not really the "pertanian"scholarship here)sponsorship, which means..sponsor by your FAther & Mama (your own parents). Self sponsor can also be...sponsor by your own too. EPF/KWSP can be used to be education fees which already be stated under Malaysia law.

To be under airlines...
Airlines is the largest sponsorship you can obtain to support up for piloting fees. Every airlines having their own requirements in term of age limits, SPM results,... and etc. You may find it that the requirements will be higher than you join it privately. Well, they sponsor you, of course they wanna choose the top of the crops right?! With airlines, you will need to sit for the psychometric, psycho motor, interview and medical check up. Once you passed it, they will call u up to sign the contract(bond) with them. It's good that your career is secured with them and you need not to find a huge sum for the fees ( If you're having financial problem.) The process of the tests by airlines is around 1/2 year-1.5 years.

Sponsor by other societies.
the meaning over here is... either with loan or with scholarship.
With the loan, of course you will need to pay it back. With the scholarship/sponsorship, be grateful then. You can obtain your loan from bank. Personal loan/Refinancing/study loan/... whichever loans you be able to think by a bank, check it out with them for further details. Other than banks, you may also try up other societies like MARA (only for Malays and bumi), Yayasan ( Sarawak and Terengganu) , JPA and HondaDreams Fund(As long as you're in their age range and from a poor family background). MARA does provide the loan. Yayasan provides the loan. HDF provides scholarship. JPA provides scholarship. They are records that students got the loan from all these sources. Whether they have stop providing the loan/scholarship for aviation study..., you may really need to check out with them from time to time. Sponsor you in aviation study may be able to sponsor 4 people to study in private University. Instead of helping you, one person, they can help out 4 people out there who are poor enough to further their study. Bear that in mind and think positively if suddenly they cease the sponsorship for this field.

Hereby wishing you good luck in planning your funds up. ;)
