I am really hopping to be able to get a PPL completed before I head down there in OCT.
Take a look at the cost estimate and see what you can get elsewhere. It's pretty cheap at SW, and since you're out of pocket for PPL you may find it's worth waiting to go to SW. Another thing to consider is that the summer thunderstorm season will be over when you arrive, so hopefully not many weather days. I had a PPL with 33.8 hrs and 14.1 PIC (250 PIC is pretty much the only number that matters) and I'm on track to finish everything in 70ish days. That's with 10 wx/mx days and 4 days that I took off.
