Please email us at hccadmin@heli-college.com to request a set of application forms. or download an online application form in "Word" format (HCC Application.doc).
Visa assistance provided
We can help you reduce the time required for issue of your student visa however ... We strongly suggest that you contact the nearest Canadian Consulate to check the current procedures for visa application from your country BEFORE sending us your application or matriculation fees. There are some countries for which Canada is not currently issuing student visas for flight training courses on a regular basis. Still others will not be permitted to have more than one type of visa application open at the same time.
Once we have received your application forms and matriculation fee of $1000.00, we will forward the proper documentation confirming your enrolment at our school and requesting that your student visa be issued. Please note, however, that a portion of the matriculation fee is non-refundable should you cancel your commitment or should your visa application be declined by the Canadian Consulate.
Ground transportation from Vancouver airport to school
Upon your arrival at Vancouver airport, we will pre-arrange for your transportation to your accommodation in Langley. If you require a rental car during your stay in Canada, we can arrange for one.
Motels
Heli-College Canada has made special arrangements with two nearby motels to provide reduced cost accommodation to our out-of-town students. The current rate for a single room with kitchenette is $1200.00 CDN per month. One of the motels is located only one block from the airport. Also, if you are registered in our accommodation for over two months, you may apply for a rebate of room taxes paid. Since several of our students use this facility, it allows you to stay in an atmosphere which is conducive to studying with fellow students.
Homestay
Heli-College also assists with arranging homestay accommodation for those who prefer to live with a Canadian family. Homestay units are available within close range of the airport. The current rates range from $600.00 to $1200.00 per month.
Licence Documentation Assistance
Be sure that any country in which you choose to train, is a member of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). ICAO membership assures that the highest training standards have been met, and that your licence will be highly portable between countries. As a contracting state in ICAO, our Canadian Licence courses fully comply with the ICAO requirements. In order to make it even easier to convert your licence to fit the requirements of any country where you may wish to work, Heli-College will ensure you have the proper documentation. We will provide an official transcript of your course, and copies of all government licensing documentation, in both English and the language of your choice.
Aviation English language (AESL) training available
Heli-College Canada has created a program for students requiring practice with their English. We have designed a special Aviation English and Radiotelephony course for our international students. If necessary, we can also arrange for your enrolment in other English language courses available in the nearby community.
