I need some help choosing a school please

Where is your location; we need to know the hiring area you live in before we can recommend a school.
When was the 15 over ticket?
OK, just spotted it; Kentucky!
Companies will, more than likely, look at your application and decide if they want to give a waiver on the ticket, depending on the date you received it.
Try these two that have rider program, lodging,meals, transportation from Kentucky to the school, transportation to school every day. Both accept 21 yr. old students.

Have you looked in your state or city for a trucking school?Schools do provide lodging but you do know you'll have to pay for it and its not cheap like $400.00 a week or more.Sounds like you're completely broke I suggest having cash on hand for emergencies.You should apply for a student loan once you figure out what school to attend.But I think that school will want money up front for the books like 150.00.Your fiance won't be going with you for awhile till after training with a trucking company and you may have to wait up to 90 days after that before you can have riders.

 

Might try Prime. Most companies want you to be 23. Might give you a waiver on 22.

Also, check your counties unemployment office. Ask them if they have a program that will pay to retrain you. In Ohio it is called WIA. If they do, they will pay for a school near your place and then you can choose what company you want with contract to pay back and you will have access to better companies than those with their own schools. Its worth a shot.

Whatever you decide, good luck.

 

In most cases the state will pay for private cdl school. Talk to someone at the unemployment office or Google : WIOA Program Kentucky

Well, apply to those two companies and see what happens. They have online applications.

 

I know Weld county in Colorado has a similar program. Back when I was unemployed and looked into it they had a program through the unemployment office that paid $4000 for CDL training.

 

That's about what my cdl cost only I got mine thru a college and the room was free.I had alot of fun.
