Tuition: Is $4600 Normal?

Schools range from $500 to $10,000. I wouldnt pay that unless thats your ONLY school up there. How long is the school? (hours)

I paid $2,500 for my school

Where did you go to?

I was in touch with Watkins and Shepard and was surprised to hear they stopped their in house school... Do you know why?

 

they lost a ton of money in a very short period of time so they just shut it down, im not sure what happened. That was a few months before i started there.

I went to Trans Tech when i was 18 to get my CDL, and Charlotte Truck Driver Training School when i was 20 to make the insurance companies happy so i could go OTR when i turned 21

My local community college costs about $1100 for their 380 hour class if you're a resident of the state. For out of state residents, the cost is about $4000.

 

check crowder in Mo. You may be able to go through Conway TL. I just finished a week at Crowder- seems like a good school- not too expensive and they have housing. good luck

 

3600 here at the community college for "200" hours.

 

sage is at the community college here at rome,ny ands its 5,200. so much for the community cheap cdl course for me, but I shopped around for awhile and found one for 3,000 at another school in syracuse. as alot of the experienced guys here have been pointing out though you want to check out the school. youll prob end up getting what you pay for.

 

Community college at Starke, Florida is $2700 for 320 hours over eight weeks training. A healthy slice of that is backing various types of truck. That's in-state, if memory serves about 50% more for out of state (12 months to qualify).
