After searching this website and a few others I'm surprised to see the tuition at FIT is over $34,000! plus $11,000 room and board and I have to assume another $15,000 year for flight time (unless its included, which I doubt) Now your looking at ERAU prices!! The scoop I've heard concerning FIT is there are alot of foreign studs who seem to get a higher priority at times due to various reasons.
GLOBAL EXPRESS....No hit on ERAU but almost everyone I fly with in both the Air Force and Civilian tell me its way overpriced, though it has an excellent reputation, and if given the choice they would have gone somewhere else. Thats easy for them to say now, but I'm really not willing to spend $60,000/yr. Plus I really want my son to experience real weather issues, Cancellations, re-filing flight plans re-routes etc etc that is valuable training in itself. ERAU would be high on the list, if money wasn't an issue but thats not the case.
