Indeed, it was NOT a $27 grand proposition at Baylor. More along the
low 6 figures. But there are many good & excellent part 141 colleges &
universities with both stellar flight instruction and reasonable rates/
expenses both at the school and for the flight costs. Near here,
Central Texas University and South-Eastern Oklahoma State are good,
reasonable 141 schools. In my city, Texas State Technical College is a
good, and cheap 141 school but you'll graduate with only a (virtually
useless) 2 year associates degree. Now that I think of it, TSTC
partners, I believe, with South Eastern or UT Arlington for a
bachelors and you stay in Waco for your flying & classroom
instruction. Many 2 year colleges are partnering with nearby
universities so one can earn his/her bachelors while staying in their
respective city, avoiding the hasle & expense of moving for a degree..
