Alfonso, +1 on the comment about having a better career as an engineer. That said, though, if you insist ...

You're going to have to come over here and take a look. There are just too many variables and subtleties to judge from afar. I'd be happy at a smaller school - and it'd likely be cheaper. That's just me, though.

The best advice I can give, though, is to not pay for your training in advance!!!!!! No matter how big the discount or how tempting the terms, don't do it. A ten hour block of time is okay, but people are dropping huge sums for, say, a "zero to ATP" program - only to have the proprietor go bankrupt and/or abscond with the funds. Indeed, be careful about any firms that even offer big discounts for this.

Keep your finger in engineering if you can, until you're sure that aviation is the right path. And good luck!
