If I were in your shoes, I would look at one of the R-ATP bachelor's degree programs. A lot of them will give you credit for your existing ratings, so it may not take you the full two years to finish.

Since everything is paid through the school it qualifies for federal student loans and aid, which come at a much better rate and terms than private loans for flight training.

With an approved bachelor's degree including 60 hours of coursework you can get your R-ATP at 1000 hours and save half a year of timebuilding.

Here's the list of approved degree programs that qualify for the R-ATP:
