Check out the basic requirements to find out if you're eligible to join the Wizz Air Pilot Academy.
  • Unrestricted right to live and work in the EU or in countries with an operating base
  • Minimum high school degree completed
  • Minimum age of 18 years
  • Fluent English (both written and spoken)
  • Valid Class 1 Medical Certificate
  • Ability to swim 50 meters without any help

before it said “able to get class 1 medical” which is different, now it says valid class 1 so it means you needed to already have one and upload it.
key word is "to join".
You need Class1 for start training in WAPA, not to participate the assessment. You join WAPA after the successfull assessment.
After assessment you normally have from 2 weeks to 6 months before start.
I know people participated assessment in December 2021 without Class 1.

Also that is logical - passing rate is around 15%, so why force all candidates to spend around 400 EUR, if most of them will fail?
Again, if you hesitate, you can just write them.
