This link contains their answer to your question. No money down, no credit check, $55.00/wk for 18 wks, then $75.00/wk until paid. If the payments lasted for a total of 52 wks, then you would repay a total of $3550.00. That would equal 18.53% interest over the course of the first year. They finance it at 18%, so they say, so for a three week school it could be worse. I've seen some as high as $8495!!

I was referring to the cost of the school tuition only, nothing more.

I have been thinking about applying to CR. I got my cdl last year, and I have no driving experience. On their website they say you have to attend their school if it has been over 6 months. So, here is my question, silly as it sounds: when you go through their school, do you have to retake the state cdl exam if you already have a cdl, or do you just take the training, pay for it, and skip the testing? I will probably call a recruiter but just wanted to see if I could get an answer here quicker.

Thanks

No state testing, but you do have to take a company roadtest.

My suggestion is to ask a recruiter. Having been out so long without driving, they have a refresher course, and they charge for that. I went to their school with no CDL, so I didn't deal with that, but I do remember others that were there that had to spend a few days with us, and CRE charged them for it.....
