Well I went the College with an aviation program route. I started flight training about the third week of school my freshman year. And four and a half years later, I finished all the way up to my CFI with a degree in hand and moved out to Texas and got my Multi-engine rating, CFII, and MEI. In total, I am about $54,000 in debt with college loans and aviation loans. In could be in debt by a lot more if the college I went to wasn't as cheap as it was. I probably could have gotten it done a lot cheaper but overall I'm satisfied how everything went. I think I might go a little more in debt by going and getting my masters though.
