| GT4JK, Only you can decide what's best for you. However, having said that, I'm now going to say: if at all possible, do NOT go to a company school. Do your best to find a community college or independent school. If you attend a company school, you are in debt to that company from the outset. Rather than depend on family money (not bad if you have it, but if you can, save it for something else), go talk to the county employment people. Ask them about a WIA grant. That's what I did - when I (well, IF I) graduate from school in 2 weeks, I am not constrained. I can pick and choose what companies I want to work for, and send applications to. Of course, there IS a downside to this (and an upside to company schools). I don't have a guaranteed job when I graduate. On the other hand, it's my opinion that an independent school is more likely to actually teach you what you need to know, and is less likely to be a simple CDL mill. |

| Going with Roadmaster I feel is leaving me in a position with more options. I should have several prehires by the time I graduate with my CDL and can then choose which of those I feel benefits me most.
