Nope. But if you're looking for something nearby in the Midwest, I highly recommend Cobra Kai in Wichita Falls. Ex-ENJJPT instructors and big picture examiners... Big-boy training tailored to military pilots.
Got mine in 4 days in a Beech Baron (E55). Day 1 ground school (to review packet they send you.) Days 2 and 3, fly a sortie and sandbag a sortie with another student each day. Check on the 4th day. Study the packet and chair fly the canned profile a couple of times and it'll be the easiest ground eval/check ride ever.
$2850 gets you 6.5 hours (2 sorties + check) plus 15 hours of ground instruction. Examiner fee was $550. They also have a Red Bird sim if you want to practice/chair fly but they charge an additional $125 for the week to use it. (Not really necessary though.)
They're booked out for a few months, though you might get lucky to pick up a cancelled slot earlier.
