I did the UVU program online back in 2002-2004. It was cheap and you get a lot of credits for your ratings. I only had a couple classes done at a community college when I transferred in, so I did most of my general ed classes with them as well. My daughter is planning on becoming a pilot and right now I'm leaning towards Tarrant Community College (DFW area) then either transfer to the University of Northern Texas-Arlington aviation degree program or transfer to UVU. Costs seem reasonable at Tarrant CC, $60 something thousand to get you thru your instructor ratings and a 2 year degree. It's local to us, so that will help keep costs down.
