Swift academy anywhere is going to be about the same... $6k and a 2yr commitment and all your classmates will be window lickers..

Balakov100 Thanks this. -
Bout the same as anywhere else if you're not from local area you get to stay in a hotel/motel for three weeks, learn to hold a steering wheel, go out with a trainer for three months later listening to his/her bs smell their dirty feet and farts & hopefully you'll learn to do the buffet roll, then graduate to first seat and get your own company truck......
MrIT Thanks this. -
U actually go with a trainer for 200 hrs of driving. So the more u drive the faster u can get off his truck.. go at ir pace not ur trainers.. if your trainer wants you to drive drive drive..immediately request for another trainer. Your trainer should want you to suceed after you go solo. But most just want you to drive while in their truck to make them xtra money. You dont have to team with another student after your trainer, which is a good thing.. and remember this, if you are not sure about it, whether its a route, a road, a companys driveway or parking lot, or when you're parking, then dont do it.

Its $4500 and theres no commitment -
Community Colleges have good programs. Seek one out at least to compare and contrast.

Six thousand? WOW! I used a private driving school and paid $2700. I had to pay it all up front though.
