Check out Southeastern Oklahoma State University. It’s priced well below some of the big named universities and has a very strong alumni presence. Most, if not all, of the alumni are willing to mentor you along the way. It’s not the fastest paced program, but has a very personal atmosphere as the program isn’t huge. It’s an accredited four year university, so that will allow for the restricted ATP at 1,000 hours instead of the FAA minimum of 1,500. While many others would suggest majoring in something else, my recommendation is to major in aviation. You can always double major to be marketable in another industry. Also, last I knew, there was an out of state tuition waiver if you keep your grades up. Once you get the ability to PM, send a message if you’re interested and I’ll give you a little more info and hook you up with a tour if you want.
