Also, he could go to Purdue, apply for an ROTC scholarship (Army, AF, or Navy available there) and have his school mostly paid for. AF ROTC on a Guaranteed Air National Guard scholarship and he likely can fly in the Air Guard as well...

Many options.

Doesn't United have something like this as well. It seems the way the majors are looking forward at direct path entry with all the retirements coming in the next 10 years. I would try this route first. Also at a school like Purdue or WM you can make contacts which all civilian candidate are paramount.
