I am a student at ATP and did my loan through teri.org current rate is %7.49 They were very easy to work with as well.

If flying is something you want to do and have no other way of paying for training, get the loan and chase the dream my brother!

Good luck
I don't think anyone will say that. The simple fact is that sometimes we become blinded by desire to achieve a goal, unable to see the cost of getting there. I say we because I am also in that boat. I will actually end up a bit in debt for my flight training as well. Nothing to the tune of $60k, but a little, just to expedite a few things.

People at Jetcareers are warning people about loans because alot of people here at Jetcareers have taken these loans, and either regret it or admit to wishing they had done it differently. It is simply paying it forward to give this advice. Ultimately, it is up to the individual to make the choice.
