Hi, I am 19 years old girl, I am in college studying theatre but my real dream is to be a Commercial Pilot. I live in Puerto Rico were it is hard to became a pilot. I'm thinking of transferring to a pilot collage/flying school to fulfill my dream as an airline pilot.I would appreciate any and all help I could get in choosing the best flying school/collage.(Embry-Riddle, Spartan, UND, Perdue, ATP, Flight safety Academy, ETC.) I would consider a small fight school but I don't have the financial means to pay for flight training out of pocket right now. I would be open to a small private school if they would help me with setting up the loans. I would be taking school loans to pay for my school and flight training. I am really anxious to start making my dream a reality. I want to take in consideration the hours per day of flying training, good loans opportunities for students,

Bienvenidos! Yo recomendo Delta State University en Cleveland Mississippi. Commercial Aviation - College of Business
En su busqueda por una escuela de aviacion, tiene que dar attencion a la tuicion de residente de estado y non residente. Despues de un ano de vivir en aquel Estado, la mayoria de Universidades pueden darte tuicion de residente. Consige licencia de manejar, registrarse de votar, etc., ayudan de establecer residencia en aquel Estado para tratar de recibir el discuento.

En verdad, hay muchas escuelas de aviacion! Si uno empieza con la meta de recibir una licensia de instructor (CFI), uno puede conseguir trabajo en la escuela ensenando otros estudiantes y ganando experiencia y horas de vuelo. Tambien, si puede recibir una licensia privada antes de salir PR, yo creo que vale la pena porque tendra un buen idea si aviacion es para ti antes de hacer la gran decision.

Conozco muchos Puertoriquenos que estudiaron en Embry Ridle pero creo que la universidad es bien costoso! Tambien, creo que es un buen idea de tener un minor o otro major en algo completemente diferente de aviacion en caso que pierdas su licensia medical, salud, etc. Quizas doble major en contabilidad, negozio general, etc. entiendes?

Aqui es un link de escuelas reconocidas por FAA:

Tambien, si puedes conseguir un CFI con associates degree seria menos costoso y uno puede buscar trabojo como piloto y estudiar online por un bachelors.

Cool flex but reading, writing and speaking English is still a requirement

You are welcome to click the translate icon. I'm not worried, most Puerto Ricans will master writing skills in college if not by the end of High School. Like was said earlier, probably a troll.

Go to the cheapest college you can find, work on a degree, work part time, and take flying lessons on the side when you can.

You mean master English with words like "collage" and "becam" and phrases like "I am 19 years old girl"? I fail to see any mastery there. All I can do is sigh and shrug my shoulders.

You must be brilliant to have discovered all those errors by yourself! Thank you for bringing it to our attention!

...........and why do you think PR kids leave the island to come stateside? To practice Spanish??? Believe me, they understand the value of getting a college degree and becoming proficient in English! Hell, I can't even understand Memphis ATC!
