A generation of Air Traffic Controllers is nearing retirement. These individuals are at the crux of aviation safety, and the next generation of protection must be ready to take over. Will you be one of them?
As an air traffic controller, your role can not be overdramatized. You are responsible for directing aircraft entering and leaving the airport, instructing pilots on when and where they can land and depart - minimizing flight delays, and most importantly, keeping passengers safe.

FAA Requirements:
The FAA has additional requirements for Air Traffic Controller positions, including physical and mental standards, along with the prerequisite that an individual must be hired before age 31.
Program Requirements:
- Students entering the program directly after graduating from high school need to have earned a minimum 3.0 GPA and a 21 ACT or 1060 SAT.
- Transfer students and students who have already earned a bachelor's degree must have a minimum 3.0 GPA.
Note: For the associate's degree program, it is preferred that students have earned a previous bachelor's degree since the bachelor's degree will likely present a greater opportunity for employment as an Air Traffic Controller.
