This is my situation. Any advice would help about picking a company with CDL school!!

So, the private schooling is of the table because they want $5000 up front for the 4 week classes. They will go through financial aid and I do qualify, but it cost even more and it is 20 weeks long without any pay. The financial aid only pays the academy for the school and I'm on my on driving back and forth 100 miles a day to school 5 days a week. That is also paying my on gas and meals to survive. I do have the convenience of my own house 20 weeks, but that is a while to go without a pay check. My savings want cover the gas and meals for 20 weeks and with the hours of the school a part-time job is out of the question if I can even find one. So, going to have to go with a company paid CDL school and clueless on which one to sign my butt to. Very confusing situation because I don't want to pick a company that just ain't for me. I feel the pressure my classmate felt when he was the star athlete all these colleges was chomping at the bits at. They all are going to lie to get you to sign the line. I just want to sign with the one that is right for me. I don't mind the away from home time because I want to drive and make the money. I also want to not be broken down in a piece of you know what so equipment is priority also. I really don't want much classroom time either because I just got burnt out on that in college. Finally, I don't want a dozen students to instructor ratio. I'm on a tight budget right now also so anyone got the experienced good advice on the best fit company paid CDL school to sign my soul to? To you guys with the knowledge and experience put yourself in my situation and pretend you was starting over again and tell me what you would do please!!!
