Default ATP Flight School verses Aerosim Academy

I'm looking at these two schools and need help with them. I'm still balancing between ExpressJet and Envoy.

Aerosim.
Pros:
12 month program (zero-hero) with a guaranteed interview for CFI.
Onsite housing with discounted apartments near by.
Part 141. (So I can get R-ATP)
Seems like a friendly atmosphere.
Made my Delta Connection.
Accepts Envoy Pipeline and ExpressJet AP3.
Financing available.
Cons:
$73,000 to go.

ATP Academy.
Pros:
180 days (zero-hero).
GUARANTEED CFI job.
Envoy Tuition Reimbursement and some reimbursement from ATP when I fly as a CFI.
Cheaper.
Envoy Pipeline Instructor program.
Cons:
Part 61.
No ExpressJet programs.
College credits required. (Is this true? What about those of us trying to get through school and get to an airline ASAP?)

Current/former ExpressJet and Envoy pilots and ATP/Aerosim students or graduates please help out. I'm new here and would like your input. Thank you!

I would choose ATP, they have locations all over the US. They are cheaper, and quicker than Aerosim. Also they do not require a college degree (neither does Aerosim AFAIK)

Choose creating more threads about ATP vs. ignoring the hundreds of threads already created on the subject.
