About this school

Aviation Institute of Maintenance-Orlando is a private for-profit trade school located in Casselberry, Florida, a large suburb in the Orlando area. The campus is accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges and is approved for federal financial aid (Title IV), meaning eligible students can use FAFSA, federal loans, and grants to help pay for enrollment. The campus concentrates on a single program family, awarding credentials primarily in aviation maintenance, with its Aviation maintenance (A&P) program accounting for 109 recorded completions.

Federal data shows a completion rate of 82.8%, above the Florida state average of 70.5% for comparable programs. Graduates who took out loans carried a median debt of $31,301, and median earnings ten years after entry were reported at $53,341. About 34.7% of students at this campus receive Pell Grants, indicating a substantial share of lower-income enrollment. Annual cost of attendance is not reported for this campus in federal data.

This campus is structured around one field — aviation maintenance — rather than a broad menu of trades, which may suit someone already targeting an FAA Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) career path rather than someone exploring multiple trades. Because the program leads to a single occupational credential rather than a general associate degree, it may appeal to career changers seeking focused, hands-on training. Prospective students should verify current accreditation status directly with the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges and review the school's full outcomes on the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard before enrolling.
