Don't go to skywalk.....

Don't Fast track anything in flying, use the SLOW track, it will help you learn better...

Your Visa issue depends on whether you are still looking to apply to get a Visa or if already in US & looking to transfer & depends on many variable factors.

Enrolling in a 141 school is a requirement only for students who here for Flight Training Only.

But if you are going to be enrolled in a degree program, then you will need to be on F-1 visa, you don't need anything to do flight training.

You can do flight training on the side as an additional course part of your degree & get credits for those units, if CSUS allows those extra credits.

If not, you can just do it purely as a hobby.

All you will need is to have a TSA clearance, but that is required regardless for all Non US Citizens, even for someone who is a Legal Permanent Resident (Green Card) in the US.

Do you your research and choose the right place carefully because you will spend a lot money.
Then What about Long beach flying academy? Is it a good place to fly?
