thanks for all the info everyone. Staying could be an option however being just graduated with my bachelors i could potentially be moving anywhere within the country in a short time period. I am a US citizen so visas are not an issue.

I'm just finding that my current school is not working with me, they have set time slots, where as I think a mom n pop shop would be much more accommodating to my needs and schedule. IE i'd rather meet for longer periods of time instead of 1 hour a day M-F. I originally was on the professional pilot track, however i've decided against it and do not need my PPL, i would just like to finish it up at a later date.

Not to mention the costs at my school are $150/hr wet and $45/hr ground...... Which is another reason.
