DCA has good training, but it isn't worth the money. They talk down to you and do anything to take your money. Anyone considering that school should look elsewhere. They also have high altitude training for a cost of $2500.
Anything they quote you for training, double it, and you'll get the total amount of money you'll actually pay. I learned my lesson the hard way.

The comments by ‘saabguy493’ ‘The Juice’ and ‘Gfrede1’ are right on. The academy took me for 65K back in 2006, but a year later when I was hired by ASA, they did not care where I got hours, only that I met their min’s, and that I had a good interview and sim ride. Also, be careful with FBO’s, not all are created equal. I also worked at an FBO where it was all about milking the student for money, not progress.

I go to DCA and I haven't spent anywhere near the money you guys are talking about... I know what I'm spending and I know what I'm getting, I've looked around and checked out alot of schools and sorry I really like DCA. My Instructors are great my education is amazing, nobody slides under the radar there. High standard are held though all of my training so far... I'm pleased with my decision, o String682 and anyone who decides on a school because of the "benefits" & name are kinda dumb. All I care about is the knowledge and quality I'm getting.
