Hey guys, I am currently in the process of deciding on where I want to go to school. I will be a senior in HS this year and hold a PPL. I have visited and been accepted to KSU. The program seems excellent and I also know someone who goes there. However, the other two schools I am looking at are WMU and CWU. WMU seems like another excellent school. I am thinking of throwing CWU out of the picture. I love the location of CWU more than any of the other schools but I do not know how good the aviation program is. I believe the flight training is done through Midstate Aviation and I think I would prefer something done through the university.

Also, with the new airline 1500 hour requirement, what would your recommendation be for building the hours? I don't know if it seems reasonable to try to get my ratings before going to school and land a job before August 2013? I would be 19 years old.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
