I'm a graduate of Middle Tennessee State University. I heard about them on a forum like this and never regretted attending. I graduated with an aerospace degree which included all my ratings. It took me four years to get all my ratings but it can be done much faster, especially with the new syllabi they've just started using (combined private/instrument training (both check rides combined into one) and commercial training, both with no minimum time requirements. All you have to do is complete all of the lessons).
I've been instructing for them for 1 year and just started teaching multi-engine students so I plan on getting hired by a regional very soon. If the industry plays out as forecast, this route will get you into a flying career faster than the military route if you ask me.
