What it does not publish
- The standalone licence course fee is not on the academy's own site anywhere, which is why the figure above is Reported rather than Published.
How to apply
- Step 1. The cadet route starts with the airline's selection and its paid assessment, and the academy places you only once you have cleared it, which is why the assessment fee is a real cost before there is any offer to accept.
Whichever school you choose, the licence needs a DGCA Class 1 medical, a DGCA Computer Number and five theory papers from the DGCA exam syllabus, practised in the DGCA question bank and under a timed mock test.
