Please don't goto DAC, RAA, or any of those "academy's"
Find a nice Part 61 or small part 141 flight school, get your CFI/I/MEI and work for them and get your hours to apply to a regional. While you are working as a CFI, spend your spare time in college. Get a non-aviation degree, business management or something. Something you can use should you feel that flying professionally isn't what you expect.
Good luck!
Be very careful reading some comments by a select few negative nancy's on this forum. I'll let you figure out which ones to be suspect of.
