Not really. 141 backround shows that you came from a structured training environment but that is it. I highly doubt an interviewer would look you over beacuse you came from a 61 school. But the 141 will be quicker and might save you money.
Oh and youll probably be at an airline by the time you have your atp so I wouldnt worry about trying to take out loan money to get up to that 1500 total time. And about a quarter of the guys at the school I teach at are 30+ dont worry man you are still sitting pretty. Good luck!
