Summer/Fall Opportunities
Attention students with a high school diploma, the Federal Aviation Association is taking applications for air traffic controller school. You need only a high school diploma to apply and credit is given for college on the exam. Fill out the application immediately even if you don't know if you don’t want to attend immediately, it may be several months before the federal government calls. The key is to apply NOW... The FAA rarely has an open application such as this and these jobs are coveted. This is a great opportunity and it should be noted that choosing a site like Anchorage or Indianapolis to train is a likely acceptance into the training program, after which you can transfer anywhere in the country that has a tower.
