Alex, you've selected a great list of schools to investigate! They're almost all very prestigious schools that have a rich history of typically producing quality graduates. One that I noticed not on your list however, is Parks College. It's located in St Louis, MO and is the 1st federally-certified flight school (since 1927). Like some others have posted, flight training is a very expensive path to follow and being at Parks certainly isn't cheap. It's a great school that's at least worth a glance. If nothing else, it might be a good frame of reference to compare pros vs cons when analyzing other schools. Good luck!
