Thank y ou for the great information. I've been weighing some options that I have.

I'm a little hesitant to take out a 73,000 Student Loan when I see other FAR141 schools in CA that are around 35,000 for the same program (Most of them don't include housing and probably have 30-40 hours less ME time) But that doesn't add up to $38,000. I'm still trying to figure out why a lot of people chose ATP over the local FBO's. Maybe I'm just blind and it's that they are Nike brand when local FBO's are XJ-9000 brand (Who remembers that? haha). They both have the same result though.

Besides that, I have to add interest to the loan; which I'd pay back in 15-20 years and that would make it even MORE that I would owe back.

I'm all over the palce as far as what to do... I'm thinking about getting a lesser loan out and going to an FBO. Some of them have pretty nice aircraft compared to ATP.

Decisions.. Decisions.. My brain actually hurt last night and wouldn't turn off from 2 days of non-stop research.
