I have been checking schools in the Indianapolis area and wondered if anyone has any info or attended a school in Indiana.
Things like Price, total hours and how many weeks.
Thanks

My son just started this week at Truck Driver Institute in South Bend. $4995 up front or $5995 financed. Plus $125 if you stay in motel plus license and permit fees. They also are in Sellersburg and Whiteland.
Three weeks 154 hours, incl 4 hrs night driving.dennisroc Thanks this. -
You can also check out the Celadon Trucking School.. They're on the Internet, and can be contacted by phone. I work for them, so I know they have a school for your license and then put you with a Trainer for a number of weeks. They have a student dormitory and I think they provide meals.. I don't know anything about the costs involved, but it's no free ride.. They will collect back everything associated with your schooling !! It might be a way to get started if you're short on cash up-front.
newbietrucker007 and dennisroc Thank this. -
Maybe like how they are to work for ? How long you have been there , How much is the pay and what type of trucks and transmissions or anything else you would like to share.
Thanks, You can PM me if you like. -
Dennisroc: I too am looking at celadon and I really truly like what I heard and just want to hear more on this company. Dennisroc, hope whatever your choice u make will be a great one. Good luck !!!!!
dennisroc Thanks this. -
Check and see if ivy tech has a trucking program up there. I know Madison Indiana does. Almost took an instructor adjunct job with them but it only paid 38k/yr :-/
Its a sage program through the cc.
You'll save a ton of money if you don't need to get going now.
I can vouche to sellersburg TDI being a good place for cdl training. Good crew of guys. Tdi just teaches you to get your cdl not real backing. Good driving fundamentals through a well populated area though.
Heard the ppl up there hollar about "two fingers" lol.(south bend TDI)dennisroc Thanks this. -
Hey Dennis have you looked into Carter Express in Anderson, Indiana yet? I "heard" they pay for or are hooked up with a school now...I could be wrong. Worth giving then a call, I think the recruiters name is Kelly. They are way better than Celadon.
dennisroc Thanks this. -
I second the Carter Express. Worth checking out before Celadon. Also, the Ivy Tech in Muncie has a CDL program. There's a C1 on Raymond Street, but you'll sell your soul to PAM or USA Truck. I think there's a Roadmaster in Indy as
well.dennisroc Thanks this. -

Ivy tech was a sage program and the total cost for training was 1850 dollars.
This was a couple yrs ago.
Prob 2500 now since ivy tech jacked up tuition etc... Only gonna get higher.
