EAA Ray Aviation Scholarship


The EAA Ray Aviation Scholarship is a merit-based scholarship program that is funded by the Ray Foundation, managed by EAA, and administered through the EAA Chapters network. Through the generous support of the Ray Foundation, EAA provides up to $12,000 to deserving youths to help cover their flight training expenses, totaling $2,250,000 in annual scholarship funding.

EAA chapters apply for a scholarship, and if approved, the chapter then awards the scholarship to a youth or young adult to help them become a pilot. In addition to scholarship funding, the chapter also helps mentor the scholar and supports them on their path to becoming a licensed pilot.

This scholarship is available for candidates 16-19 years old who are pursuing a Private Pilot or Sport Pilot certificate, and for candidates 15-19 years old who are pursuing a Glider Pilot certificate.

Each year we apply to host one or more EAA Ray Aviation Scholarships. We usually will know if our chapter is selected to host the scholarship sometime between the end of February and the beginning of April. Please reach out to our current scholarship coordinator via the email listed below for additional details.

If you are interested in supporting our scholarships or youth outreach via a tax-deductible donation, please reach out to the chapter and we can set something up with you. Each donation, grant, or fundraiser helps to enable our chapter to better support our youth outreach and scholarship programs. 

If you are a current Young Eagle or active chapter member between 16-19 and would like to be considered for one of our scholarships, please contact our scholarship coordinator at eaa443.scholarships@gmail.com.
