where to go?
Hey, I just found here to be a great place to get information from everyone. I'm thinking about UVU to start my professional pilot training. Within $47k, I'd get PPL, Instrument, CPL, CFI,CFII,ME,MEI. Sounds good to me. I don't need a degree. But they want me to be their student to fly with them. If so, then taking classes would be extra on top of $47k. Can anyone explain this? I'm still open to other flight school. I don't mind moving to other city as long as the training and living cost beat UVU. If you know better deal, please let me know. By the way, I'm an international student so part 61 school aren't for me?

it's Utah Valley University. I just decided to give up that school. They don't care about international students. I am looking at Dutch Wings, who told me they'll be able to issue M-1 visa next year. Would you recommend other flight school that can take international students and whose tuition is reasonable? I want to get PPL, Instrument, CPL, CFI, CFII, and MEI within 35K.

I'm thinking about Dutch Wings, which will be able to issue M1 visa next year and BlueDiamond in La Verne, CA, a FBO. The owner of BlueDiamond told me that they have some agreement with a local school. So they'll issue me F-1 visa. The total expenses for both of these two won't exceed $30K. Any comment is welcome.
