The student pays the bills.Does AVIATE do that? Who ultimately is paying the bills?
Aviate Academy uses partnerships with various aviation organizations for outreach, scholarships, and student loans. Scroll down to the "Partnerships" section, just past half way down the page. https://unitedaviate.com/
They are trying to increase the number of young people who pursue aviation and start a relationship with them to increase the chances that they'll pursue UAL when they're ready.
The stated goal is to train 10,000, through Aviate Academy, with half of those being women or people of color. I don't think they'll be able to reach that for the same reasons that those groups are currently underrepresented in the pilot population.
