L3 Airline Academy
I just found out about this flight school out of Sanford, Florida. This is the only "private" flight school that isn't a traditional university of CC that I could find that accepted federal financial aid. This seems too good to be true and just wanted to make sure there aren't any other caveats.
If anyone is or was a student there, please reach out and vouch for the school.

L3 is a good school however when it gets busy, the wait times for stage checks/FAA checks increase + weather are far too long (that's where you can't beat ATP not sure about other 141s). Expect 18-24 months to finish. Also the guaranteed interview is just a formality, top students with minimal fails have a chance. Rent in Orlando isn't cheap unfortunately so do take all that into consideration! Good luck
